Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup salted butter (organic)
4 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup ground walnuts
3/4 cup ground hazelnuts
3 cup all purpose flour
3/4 cup powder sugar
1/2 cup powder sugar for dusting

Steps:

Preheat your oven to 325"F.
In a large mixing bowl cream together the butter and 3/4 c of the powder sugar until fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract and little by little the ground walnuts and hazelnuts. Mix until combined.
Start adding in the flour little by little until mixed in.
Prepare your largest cookie sheet and using a small spoon (or small ice-cream scoop) form the cookies into balls, the size of a golfball or smaller. You should have about 45 cookies.
Arrange all the cookies on the baking sheet without touching each other.
Bake the cookies in the preheated 325"F oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the wedding cookies from the oven and allow them to cool off just for a few minutes before rolling them over the reserved powder sugar. It's best that they are still a little warm so the sugar coating sticks nicely.
Arrange the cookies on a platter and dust with more powder sugar on top before serving.

Also sometimes called 'Mexican wedding cookie', 'Russian tea cakes', or 'butterballs', can also be shaped 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.
