Buttery brown sugar bourbon walnut balls (Derby cookies) from Baked Occasions: Desserts for Leisure Activities, Holidays, and Informal Celebrations by Matt Lewis and Renato Poliafito

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Have made this twice now, both times to rave reviews. The cookies do not spread much, resulting in small round slightly crumbly bites. Not overly sweet at all, and the whisky/bourbon is nicely balanced

    Let's say you don't want to go to all the trouble of making bourbon sugar. That's fine; just add another teaspoon of vanilla extract, and roll the cookies in plain, raw, or demerara sugar.
