Ice Box Cookies - Ruth Fletcher

(My dad spoke of these cookies often, I believe they were one of his favorites from his mother)

2 cups brown sugar                            

2 eggs
¾ cup melted butter                           
1 cup chopped nuts
3½ cups flour                                      
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder              
1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix eggs and brown sugar and add melted butter.  Blend in chopped nuts, flour, baking soda, salt and vanilla.  Once mixed, roll into two rolls and wrap with wax paper.  Freeze the rolls.  Once frozen, slice the rolls into thin slices and bake for 12-15 minutes at 375°
