GRANDMA SHARON'S MEXICAN WEDDING CAKES
My grandmother got this recipe from her grandmother. She would only tell people that these cookies have a "secret" ingredient that makes them so much better than any other wedding cake cookie that can be found. I agree with grandma! However, I like to share my recipes and grandma made sure that I had all her recipes because I love cooking as much as she did. Grandma and I would spend a week or more together baking cookies for Christmas and this cookie was always the most requested.

As part of a Mexican tradition, I tucked these tender cookies into small gift boxes for the guests at my sister's wedding a few years ago. Most folks gobbled them up before they ever got home! -Sarita Johnston, San Antonio, Texas
