Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the finely chopped pecans or almonds until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden brown on the bottom.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies are completely cool, roll them in powdered sugar until they are fully coated.
