1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt

2. Preheat oven to 350°F.
3. Cream butter and brown sugar.
4. Add egg yolk and beat until light. Blend in flour, vanilla and salt.
5. Form dough into walnut-size rounds. Dip in slightly beaten egg white, then roll in chopped nuts.
6. Place on a greased cookie sheet and make a depression in the center of each cookie.
7. Bake 8 minutes. Remove cookies from oven and carefully press centers down again.
8. Return to oven and bake for another 10 minutes. Let cool 10-20 minutes, and then fill center with your favorite jam.
