[quote=Anonymous]OP here: Thanks, all, for the very helpful responses.

Here's the recipe:
4 cups flour
1 1/4 tsp salt
1 pound (4 sticks) unsalted butter, softened (I know, it's a lot...)
10 oz cream cheese, room temp
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 tbs + 1/2 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups walnut halves (1 1/2 cups toasted and chopped, 1 cup finely chopped)

1. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper, set aside.  Whisk flour and salt in a large bowl and set aside.
2. Put butter and cream cheese in bowl and mix on medium speed until fluffy (about 2 min).  Mix in sugar and vanilla.  Reduce speed to low and add flour mixture; mix just until combined.  Mix in toasted walnuts.
3. Transfer dough to clean work surface.  Divide in half, and shape each piece into an 8 1/2" inch long log.  Wrap each in parchment paper, freeze until firm (about 30 minutes).
4.  Preheat oven to 350.  Remove log from freezer and roll in 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, coating the outside completely.  Cut long into 1/4" thick rounds.  Transfer to parchment lined sheets.  
5.  Bake, rotating halfway through, until golden around the edges, about 18-20 minutes.

Enjoy!  These are yummy cookies -- they're not super sweet, so they go really well with coffee and make a nice addition to a Thanksgiving dessert buffet.
