on ungreased baking sheets. Bake until light brown, 7-9 minutes.
Immediately remove from baking sheet. Cool on racks.
Variations:
Butterscotch slices: Substitute packed brown sugar for the sugar;
omit nuts.
Cinnamon slices: Substitute 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup
packed brown sugar for the sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon for the
vanilla; omit nuts or not.

the sugar and substitute 1/2 cup finely chopped blanched almonds for
the nuts.
