TRADITIONAL MEXICAN WEDDING COOKIES RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Traditional Mexican Wedding Cookies Recipe - Food.com image

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.

Total Time 45 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 3 dozen, 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

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)

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.
