TRADITIONAL MEXICAN WEDDING COOKIES

My mom and I have been baking these for as long as I can remember. They are delectable butter-type cookies served as favors at traditional Mexican weddings. They also make a wonderful addition to any Christmas goodie platter.

Steps:

  • Cream together butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy; stir in vanilla.
  • Whisk together flour and salt; add gradually to butter mixture; stir in chopped nuts.
  • Chill dough if it seems too soft.
  • Form dough into 1 1/4" balls and place onto parchment-lined or ungreased baking sheets.
  • Bake at 400° for 10-12 minutes or just until the cookies start to turn light golden-brown; remove from oven and allow to cool slightly; while cookies are still warm (but NOT hot) remove them from baking sheets and roll, a few at a time, in powdered sugar until evenly coated; cool cookies completely on wire racks.
  • Cookies may (optionally) be rolled in powdered sugar a second time once cooled to room temperature.
  • NOTE: Forming dough into 1" balls will increase yield to 48 cookies.

1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/4 cups sifted flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup chopped walnuts or 3/4 cup pecans
powdered sugar (for rolling baked cookies in)

ITALIAN WEDDING COOKIES III

Also sometimes called 'Mexican wedding cookie', 'Russian tea cakes', or 'butterballs', can also be made into crescents. You can also substitute pecans and they are very good as well. This is the best version of these I have ever seen, it was given me by a friend who grew up in central Europe.

  • Add flour using the pulse action on food processor until everything sticks together.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • NOTE: (If you do not have a food processor, buy fine chopped pecan pieces and use a pastry blender).
  • Refrigerate for 2 hours wrapped in plastic.
  • Remove from frig and roll into 1/2 inch balls. Place cookies on a cookie sheet and bake at 375°F for 12-15 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes and roll cookies in a pie plate filled with powdered sugar. Finish by cooling on a rack.
  • Hint: Cookies will not expand much in the oven. So, really load up that cookie sheet.
  • Enjoy!
