1. Preheat your oven to 300 and line your cookie sheets with parchment paper.
2. Start by creaming together your softened butter with the granular sugar alternative at a low speed in a mixing bowl. Then blend in the vanilla extract.
3. Next, we will add the flour to the mixing bowl. It is best to do this by adding half of the flour at a time, mixing gently between additions. Then you can fold in the chopped nuts.
4. For this next step we will shape the cookies into balls (or other shape such as crescent) and place the cookies onto the prepared cookie sheets. Tip: use a tablespoon to scoop out the cookie dough to make your cookie size consistent. Also, if your cookie dough seems to be a bit sticky, you can coat your hands with a bit of flour or oil.
