Noel Balls (a Christmas staple)

Cream:
1 cup butter
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 t vanilla
1 T orange juice concentrate
zest of one orange

Mix In:
2 1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup finely chopped nuts, we prefer walnuts, some like pecans.
This took awhile to combine in the Bosch.  I had to scrape the butter off the bottom and sides a few times, but eventually it all combined and cleaned the sides...so be patient.
Form balls.
Place on baking sheet and chill.
Bake 325 degrees for 22 minutes.
Roll balls in powdered sugar while warm, and again when cool.
