Mexican Wedding Cookies Recipe makes a cookie dough with flour, confectioner's sugar, finely chopped pecans, salt, vanilla and butter before baking to a golden brown and generously dusting with confectioner's sugar.


INGREDIENTS
2 cups flour
1 1/3 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 cup finely chopped pecans
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups unsalted butter, softened


DIRECTIONS
1: Preheat oven to 350° F. In a medium bowl combine flour, 2/3 cup of the sugar, the nuts, and salt. Stir in vanilla.
 
2: Work the butter into the mixture until it forms a cohesive ball.
 
3: For each cookie pinch off about 1 1/2 tablespoons dough and form it into a ball, using either your hands or two teaspoons. Shape about 1 1/2 tablespoons dough into a ball. Place balls on a greased baking sheet and flatten them slightly with a spoon. Bake until lightly browned, about 30 minutes.
 
4: Allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack. Dust them generously with the remaining confectioners' sugar.
