Introduction: How to Make Mexican Wedding Cookies!!!!!!
Mexical Wedding cookies are really good for parties or just snacking! Be warned: these do contain nuts. You can get all the suppplies from am any typical supermarket.
Step 1: Ingredents
Ingredents:
3 tablespoons of sugar
1/2 cup of soft butter unsalted
1 cup of all purpose flour
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1 cup of finely chopped pecans
1 cup of sifted powdered sugar (for rolling cookies)
You can get all of these ingredents from you local super market or grocer.
Step 2:
Begin by mixing togather butter, sugar and vanilla in a large mixing bowl; slowly add flour while continuing to beat and then add peacons. Mix until the dough had a nice consistancy. For better mixing results I would recomend thawing the butter in your mixing bowl before you start baking.
Step 3:
Take a typical cookie dough scooper or an ice recam scooper and scoop a ball of dough into your hand. Compact the dought into a ball and squish it flat. Rouund the edges so that all the cookies are even. This allows for eveness when baking.
Step 4:
Put your cookies on a non-stick cook pan. Bake your cookies at 325 degrees for about 15 minuets or until slightly brown on the underside. Dont over bake!!!!!
Step 5:
Take your cookies out of the oven and place them on cooling racks. Pour about 1 cup of powered sugar onto a plate for rollong your cookies. Wait untill your cookies are compleatly cool before your roll them in the powered sugar. Once you have rolled your cookies in the powered sugar place them on a decorative plate or just eat them straight off!!

These are exactly what my brother makes for us every year. Except his recipe is no baking required :-) Might just have to make an instructable with that recipe for you guys and gals.

I was excited when I saw this recipe because I had all the ingredients in my kitchen already! I just finished making these- they were pretty easy and are VERY delicious. Mexican Wedding cookies are really popular in the city I live in but I never tried making them. I actually like these more than the store bought kind. I did modify the recipe though, I added about a tsp of Cardamon because I am crazy about that flavor. So I guess I made Mexican-Indian Wedding cookies. ;) They're so good that I know they would have been just as good without the Cardamon. Thanks for posting this recipe- it rocks!
