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!

My mom and I have been baking these for as long as I can remember. They are delectable butter-type cookies served as favors at traditional Mexican weddings. They also make a wonderful addition to any Christmas goodie platter.

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:
- Place the butter and sugar in a medium bowl. Beat them with an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is pale and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. (This process is called creaming the butter and sugar.) Beat in the vanilla and water until combined.
- Sift in the flour and add the almonds. Beat on medium-high speed until ingredients are blended. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Shape the dough into bite-sized balls or crescents. Place the cookies on a cookie sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove the cookies from the baking sheet and let them sit for 5 minutes, or until they are cool enough to handle.
- Place the powdered sugar in a medium shallow bowl. Roll the cookies in the sugar until coated on all sides. Let the cookies cool completely.
- Roll the cookies again in powdered sugar once or twice more. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the softened butter, 1/2 cup powdered sugar and vanilla and beat until fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
- Add the flour and salt and stir until a dough starts to form. Once the flour is about 80% mixed in, add the chopped pecans. Mix together, being careful not to over mix.
- Roll the dough into 1 1/2" balls and place 2" apart on the baking sheet. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the bottoms of the cookies are lightly browned.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet. Then place on a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.
- While cooling, place 1/2 cup a powdered sugar in a container with a lid.
- When the cookies have cooled completely, place several in the container, cover with the lid and gently turn to coat the cookies with the sugar. You can repeat this step for additional coating.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a food processor with knife blade attached, pulse pecans with 3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar until very finely ground.
- In a small bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt, and ground pecans.
- In a large bowl, with mixer on medium speed, beat butter and sugar 1 minute or until creamy, occasionally scraping bowl with rubber spatula. Add egg and vanilla; beat until well mixed. Reduce speed to low; gradually beat in flour and pecan mixture just until blended, occasionally scraping bowl.
- Shape dough by rounded measuring teaspoons into 1-inch balls. Place balls, 1 1/2 inches apart, on ungreased large cookie sheet.
- Bake cookies 13 to 15 minutes or until bottoms are browned and cookies are light golden. Let stand on cookie sheet 2 minutes to firm up slightly, then transfer to wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining dough.
- Place confectioners' sugar in pie plate. Roll cooled cookies in sugar to coat, twice if needed.
- Note: Make sure cookies are completely cooled before rolling in the confectioners' sugar; if they're still warm, the coating will get sticky.
- Store cookies, putting waxed paper between layers, in tightly sealed container at room temperature up to 1 week or in freezer up to 3 months.
