Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour three 8 inch pans. Combine the buttermilk, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the shortening, margarine and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolks one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla and almond extract. Beat in the buttermilk mixture alternately with the flour, mixing just until incorporated. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter. Stir in pineapple, coconut and 1 cup pecans.
- Pour batter evenly into prepared pans. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow cake layers to cool 10 minutes in pans, then turn out onto wire racks to cool completely.
- To make the frosting: Cream together the butter, cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until blended. Stir in 2 teaspoons vanilla and 1 cup pecans. If frosting is too stiff to spread, stir in milk a teaspoon at a time until it reaches desired consistency.

Also sometimes called 'Mexican wedding cookie', 'Russian tea cakes', or 'butterballs', can also be made into crescents. You can also substitute pecans and they are very good as well. This is the best version of these I have ever seen, it was given me by a friend who grew up in central Europe.

ITALIAN WEDDING CAKE
This cake is moist and very dense and the longer it is refridgerated the better it becomes. Everytime I we have a potluck this is what I am requested to make. If you don't want to make the cream cheese frosting from scratch you can use canned, I prefer Betty Crocker, but taking the extra time to make your own is well worth it....

This cookie pretty much retains whatever shape you make it. You can use vanilla or anise extract, depending on your preference. It's a not-too-sweet, cakey cookie. They are my husband's favorite cookie.

Steps:
- Combine flour and shortening as if for pie crust. Add baking powder and combine.
- In a separate bowl, beat eggs and then add sugar and vanilla.
- Add flour mixture to egg mixture.
- To shape cookies, you can simply roll them into 1-inch balls or you can roll them into logs and fold them into pretzel shapes. They will puff up some but will mostly retain whatever shape you form them into.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes. They will not brown much.
- Cool and frost with your favorite glaze and add sprinkles. For convenience, you can melt store-bought frosting.
