These little cookies are near and dear to my heart. They are a cookie that my Mom and I just love. They actually go by a lot of names depending on where you are from Mexican Wedding Cookies, Danish Wedding Cookies, Russian Tea Cakes, Snowballs.
It’s all basically the same thing although some folks will change the kinds of nuts that are used in it. I ate these a lot as a kid. It’s a very simple recipe. And to me, those are the best. I love humble recipes like this. You wouldn’t think that something with so few ingredients could be so darn tasty.
These are very much like shortbread cookies. And I don’t know many people that don’t love shortbread. And let’s be honest, it’s really not a party until you have powdered sugar on your shirt, am I right?
Ingredients:
1 cup butter flavored vegetable shortening
1 cup powdered sugar (plus more for coating)
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
