1. Preheat the oven to 375°. In a large mixing bowl with an electric beater or mixer, beat the butter until fluffy, about 1 minute. Beat in the two tablespoons of confectioners' sugar and the vanilla until very smooth, about 1 minute. Add the flour and nuts. Beat on low speed just until well mixed. Refrigerate the dough about 25 minutes, just to firm it up a bit.
2. Form the dough into small balls about 1 inch in diameter and place on 1 large or 2 medium ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool the cookies on a rack 6 to 8 minutes, then roll the warm cookies in the remaining half cup of sifted confectioners' sugar. Store, covered, at room temperature, up to 3 or 4 days.
