Directions:Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
In a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, add in the walnuts and granulated sugar. Pulse until the mixture forms a crumb, similar to coarse sand. Pour the walnut mixture into a mixing bowl.
Pour the egg whites into the walnut mixture and stir just until the dough is wet and the ingredients are combined. Use a cookie scoop to measure out equal portions of dough (you should get about 18 cookies total) and roll into balls.
Place the powdered sugar in a small bowl. Roll each dough ball in the powdered sugar and place on the lined baking sheet leaving about two inches between each cookie. Gently press a walnut halve onto the top of each cookie ball.
Bake in your preheated oven on the center rack for about 10-12 minutes, or until the sides of the cookie are set. Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheet for five minutes, then move to a wire rack to cool completely. |

Notes: You can make the cookie dough ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to bake. Just cover the dough tightly with plastic wrap and roll in powdered sugar before baking.
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can also freeze for up to two months.
