MEXICAN WEDDING CAKES
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.

GRANDMA SHARON'S MEXICAN WEDDING CAKES
My grandmother got this recipe from her grandmother. She would only tell people that these cookies have a "secret" ingredient that makes them so much better than any other wedding cake cookie that can be found. I agree with grandma! However, I like to share my recipes and grandma made sure that I had all her recipes because I love cooking as much as she did. Grandma and I would spend a week or more together baking cookies for Christmas and this cookie was always the most requested.
