Mexican Wedding Cakes

Perfect! My fiance makes these cookies every year but forgot to bring his recipe with him to my house. He thought this one looked like his recipe so he used it last night. Perfectly wonderful! Thank you!

I made these exactly as the recipe states and I could not get the dough to stick together. It is really crumbly and falls part. When I did finally get the balls rolled, they didn't flatten out like the picture, After they baked, they still looked like balls of dough and weren't appealing at all.

These were simply AMAZING! I made them for our Cinco de Mayo celebration today. I've never had these cookies turn out so well. I used walnuts for the recipe and chopped them finely in my food processor. made everything in my kithcenaid mixer. So easy and tasty! Made them again in 2010 :) Great cookies! Big hit... again!

I've always loved these, just didn't know how incredibly easy they are to make. Seriously an "easy level" sweet. I did as another suggested and chopped the slivered almonds in a food processor, made it easier. Once they were done it was way easier to just place them in a ziploc bag, as someone else suggested. One thing I started to do since I made two large batches was just waited until they cooled for 5min. and then placed them in the powder sugar. The sweets that I did this way came out with the same amount of sugar as those that were done by the two method coating. Great recipe, thanks!!!!

These are awesome! I made these with ground almonds. I tasted the dough before it was baked and thought the cookies were going to be terrible, but the powdered sugar and all the butter is delicious!!!!
