| 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. | 2. Cream butter and sugar together. | 3. Add egg yolks and vanilla. Beat until smooth. | 4. To egg whites in a shallow bowl, add water and beat with a fork. | 5. Shape dough into 1 1/2 - 2-inch long fingers with stubby ends. My Mom used to make them into little horseshoe shapes after she shaped them into the fingers. It gave them a neat appearance. | 6. Drop into egg whites. | 7. Roll in nuts. | 8. Bake for 14 - 16 minutes. | 9. Cool. | 10. While the cookies cool, melt the chocolate squares using whichever method you prefer. I usually use the microwave and stir every 15 seconds. You could melt it with a double boiler if you wish. | 11. Dip ends in melted chocolate. | 12. Set on waxed paper to allow chocolate to set up. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
