I love these gorgeous little balls! The use of nuts & icing sugar reminds me of Algerian style cookies - my husband loves them as they are so similar. If you give them a few coats of confectioners sugar youwill get a beautiful finish. This recipe was originally from McCormicks.

These crumbly, sandy, nut-rich cookies are nearly always rolled twice in confectioners' sugar after baking, which is why there's so little sugar in the dough.
