Ice Box Cookies

1 C butter or margarine
1 C brown sugar, packed
1 C white sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
3 1/2 C flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 C nuts, chopped (optional)

Cream butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla, beat. Add flour, baking powder, soda, and salt. Add nuts if desired. Form into two long rolls (or rectangles) about 2 inches across and put into freezer to chill. Slice cookies about 1/8 inch thick. Bake in 375° oven for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. A few cookies can be sliced off and baked as needed if you like warm cookies. Makes 8-9 dozen, but they go fast! (The cookie dough is really good too! But I am supposed to tell you (probably that EU regulation about cookies) that it is dangerous to eat anything with raw eggs in it.
