Aunt Betty’s Homestyle German Rocks

Step 4: Add the “Rock” Texture
Gently fold in the chopped walnuts by hand, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 5: Shape and Bake
Roll the dough into small, even balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each one. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Step 6: Cool and Finish
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Once completely cool, dust generously with confectioners’ sugar.
