Steps:
- For the Mexican hot chocolate ganache: Put the chocolate, vanilla, cinnamon and ancho powder in a medium bowl. Add the heavy cream to a small saucepan and place over medium heat until it just starts to boil. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate. Whisk until the chocolate is melted and the ganache is smooth and evenly combined. Refrigerate until cold.
- Beat the ganache with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until thickened and lighter in color. Fit a pastry bag with a 1/4-inch round tip. Fill the prepared pastry with the whipped ganache. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the cookies: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Add the butter, vanilla and confectioners' sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the flour, pecans and salt and mix until the dough just comes together.
- Take about a ping pong ball size piece of dough. Form it around a boba straw to make about a 4-inch-long tube (form it close to one end so that it is easier to remove from the straw later). Then, use your fingers to slightly scrunch the dough down on either end, rounding it and forming it into the shape of a dog bone. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- Arrange the cookies (on the straws) on the prepared baking sheets about 1 inch apart. Bake the cookies, rotating the pans halfway through, until they just begin to turn golden brown around the edges and are just set, about 12 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the pan a few minutes. Use a kitchen towel to hold the straws on one end and carefully push the cookies off the straws.
- Place the tip of the pastry bag just inside the hole on one end of a cookie and pipe the ganache so that it fills it about halfway. Fill the rest of the cookie from the other side. Repeat with the remaining cookies. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve.
TRADITIONAL MEXICAN WEDDING COOKIES

Steps:
- Cream together butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy; stir in vanilla.
- Whisk together flour and salt; add gradually to butter mixture; stir in chopped nuts.
- Chill dough if it seems too soft.
- Form dough into 1 1/4" balls and place onto parchment-lined or ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake at 400° for 10-12 minutes or just until the cookies start to turn light golden-brown; remove from oven and allow to cool slightly; while cookies are still warm (but NOT hot) remove them from baking sheets and roll, a few at a time, in powdered sugar until evenly coated; cool cookies completely on wire racks.
- Cookies may (optionally) be rolled in powdered sugar a second time once cooled to room temperature.
- NOTE: Forming dough into 1" balls will increase yield to 48 cookies.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat together the butter and granulated sugar until fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the vanilla and orange zest until fully combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Add the flour mixture gradually to the mixer until just incorporated. Fold in the chopped pecans by hand.
- Using a tablespoon-sized cookie scoop, portion the dough onto a baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
- Divide the chilled dough between 2 baking sheets, leaving about 1/2 inch between each cookie. Bake until just golden, about 12 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
- Once the cookies have cooled, place the powdered sugar into a shallow dish. Roll each cookie in the powdered sugar until completely coated. Enjoy!
