Homemade Mexican Wedding Cookies Recipe 👰♀️
Today we're making DELICIOUS homemade Mexican Wedding Cookies! The full recipe is below. Please note it is 2 CUPS FLOUR (not 1 3/4 cups as I said in the video). So sorry for the confusion and let me know if you have any other questions. ❤️
----------------------------------
INGREDIENTS
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup finely chopped pecans
For rolling:
1 cup powdered sugar
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream butter, sugar and vanilla. Add flour, salt and pecans. Blend again just until dough comes together.
Shape dough into 24 1-inch balls. Place 12 balls on each lined baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes. Do not brown. Place 1 cup powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Let cookies cool slightly before rolling in the powdered sugar. Enjoy!

where did you get that spatula?
I used your recipe to inaugurate my first KitchenAid Stand mixer over the weekend! The cookies are delicious and light - not dense as some of the ones I’ve had at various bakeries - I’ve had many because it’s a favorite. Thank you for sharing this delectable recipe.
An easier way to powder them in powdered sugar at the end is to put the sugar in a brown paper bag and just throw them in maybe 5 at a time and move the bag around slowly. They come out perfectly covered without any excess ;)

Thanks so much for all the details. My mother always made these, and my job was to gently roll them in the powdered sugar. Just one taste brings back the best memories of Christmas preparation. I am wondering if there are different bands of powdered sugar. I am looking for a taste of the past, and the Whole Foods band didn't taste quite right.
Yummy delicious😋😋😋❤️

I made these today (12/22) for Christmas and I cannot believe how easy these are to make and how delicious they are. Your video states 1 and 3/4 cup of flour but the written states 2 cups of flour. Which is preferred? I used 2 cups but was wondering if you updated the recipe. I know these will now be my family's favorite (over chocolate chip, snickerdoodles and peanut butter blossoms). Also, what is the best way to store these for a few days? Thank you so much, Marie. Merry Christmas🎄🎄

Hi Joan! So glad to hear you enjoyed the cookies! You are correct to use the 2 cups flour from the written recipe. I must have mis-spoken on the video - oops! The best way to store the cookies in an air tight container on the countertop. Thanks so much for watching! Also, let me know if there’s something else you’d like to see on a video! I’m always looking for inspiration 😊 xo, Marie

Another burn trick…run the burn IMMEDIATELY under ice cold water until your hand is numb/freezing cold. The burn won’t even appear, but you have to keep your hand under the COLD water for about 10 minutes at least depending on how bad the burn is.
Yummy

Could almond flavoring or almond meal be used in place of chopped pecans and in what quantity? Several members of our family cannot tolerate chopped nuts. Thank you!

Hi! Yes, almond meal in place for the chopped pecan would be great. Use 1 cup almond meal in place of the 1 cup pecans. Hope that helps! Here’s the full recipe: mariesaba.com/recipes/mexican-wedding-cookies/

Can you freeze the cookie dough? And should you freeze them individually balled up (frozen) ?
@marieskitchen

Hi! Yes, you can freeze the dough! Make the dough into balls and then freeze them (spaced apart and separating layers with wax paper so the balls don’t stick together). Thaw at room temp for an hour before baking. Let me know if you need anything else!

נראה טעים מאוד. אני אישית לא אוהבת עוגיות עם אבקת סוכר, אז אני לא שמה... טיפ בשבילך כדי שהעוגיות יהיו מכוסות יותר עם אבקת סוכר ומושלגות יפה: לגלגל אותן באבקת סוכר פעמיים - פעם ראשונה כאשר הן חמות ובפעם השנייה לאחר שהן מתקררות לגמרי 💙💜

I will update to say that i kept going and i had to end up adding a little more flour/powdered sugar. They turned out real good. I think they would have been more moist if i didnt have to do that, but they were still really good. Im still confused on why it was really creamy and not dough like. 😕 if you have any thoughts let me know! Thanks!

Hi there! Sorry just seeing this! The video has an error - it should be 2 cups flour, not 1 3/4 cups. I’m so sorry for the confusion. The recipe on my website is correct and I’ll add the correct recipe to the caption. Good job to you for making those adjustments!! 👏🏻👏🏻 I’m so glad they turned out well!

So, do you not measure your chopped pecans as opposed to measuring them whole??
