What a very easy and delicious recipe for Mexican Wedding cakes. I will make these again and again. I used a tiny strainer to sift the confectioner's sugar on to them, once while they were warm, and again when completely cooled,it was much easier than rolling them in the sugar.

WOW! Couldn't have been any easier! I finely chopped the walnuts, and went by the recipe exactly as listed. This is a terrific cookie, light and buttery, but not very sweet. Definitely needs the powdered sugar coating! They taste as great as they look!!

I came across these and thought they sounded easy to make, and I had all of the ingredients. So on the spur of the moment, I whipped these up one afternoon. They took less than half an hour and they tasted really great. I used almond extract instead of vanilla just because I like it better, and I used both walnuts and pecans. They're so great I've decided to make another batch this afternoon to take to a party.

Was looking for this recipe tonite, except I wasn't sure what they were called. VERY easy to make, and very very GOOD. My son, who doesn't eat nuts, LOVED them also. Thanks for the GREAT recipe.

These melt in your mouth!! Made these for a "Day of the Dead" for my daughters Spanish class, and they were a big success. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe.

Unbelievably easy, and they just melt in your mouth. I made mine a bit smaller so they were more bite size, and used half pecans and half walnuts. I also piled them in a bowl with a linen instead of individual cupcake liners, it was another fun way to display them. yumyum.

These were quick and came our perfect. I'm not sure why they are called "cakes"...aren't these cookies?? I didn't have the walnuts so I used almonds which were not as fresh as I thought. They actually tasted old. Next time I'm sticking with walnuts or pecans. Either way, I'll be making them again. Thanks Julie

Wonderful recipe! They look so pretty in the mini cupcake liners. I baked them for a Mexican festival and everyone wanted the recipe. I used half English walnuts and half pecans as I didn't have enough walnuts - they were delicious! Definitely a keeper!

Excellent! I creamed the butter and then sifted the flour and powdered sugar into it along with the other ingredients rather than mixing it together all at once. These are keepers!
