cakes These white, powedered sugar covered, balls melt in your mouth! I love
that snowball cookies have a rich buttery taste with a hint of peanuts to
balance out the sugar. Plus these mexican wedding cake cookies are quick and
easy to make! Come see our mexican wedding cake recipes and whip up a batch to

Mexican christmas cookies

🧂 Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar

plus extra for rolling the cookies in
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup chopped nuts

I use Peanuts

Instructions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 F. In a bowl mix powdered sugar, softened butter, and
vanilla extract thoroughly until creamy. Now add all purpose flour, salt, and
chopped nuts until well combined. Optional: chill the dough for about 30
minutes.
2 Roll the dough in small 1” balls and place on an ungreased sheet. I like toput
parchment paper down first to make clean-up a breeze.

NOTE: These cookies will not spread.
3 Bake 10 minutes or just until set. While they are still warm, roll the cookies
in extra powdered sugar.
