These have a light and delicate texture! My family has been using this recipe for 20 years. We make them often during the Christmas season. This is the Mexican style version with pecan nuts. I heard this cookie is given to guests as gifts at Mexican weddings. The name for "snowball cookies" vary depending on the type of nut used. If pecans are used, it's Mexican, and if it's almonds, it's Russian. With walnuts, and with pistachios ... Sorry, I forgot all the names!
I use the food processor to chop the nuts. I use my hands to combine the flour with the chopped nuts to prevent lumps. If it is difficult to roll the dough into balls, squeezing them tightly may work. I use whatever nuts are available at home: pecans, walnuts, almonds, etc. There are also recipes with hazelnuts and pistachio. Make delicious cookies with your favorite nuts. I used a US measuring cup (1 cup = 240 ml). Recipe by Mama Imani.
