Walnut Crescents

3-3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1-1/2 cups margarine or butter, softened
3/4 cup light or dark corn syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla
2-1/4 cups ground walnuts
1-1/2 cups powdered sugar

Mix flour and cinnamon; reserve. Beat margarine, corn syrup and vanilla in large bowl on medium speed until well-blended. Stir in flour mixture and walnuts. Cover; refrigerate until chilled and easy to handle, at least 3 hours.

Heat oven to 350 deg. Shape dough by rounded teaspoonfuls into rolls 2" long. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet, shaping to form crescents (half moons). Bake until light brown on bottoms, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool on wire rack. Roll in powdered sugar.

Makes about 6 dozen cookies.
