Snowballs II

"These are technically Mexican Wedding Cakes or Russian Teacakes, but my grandmother gave up on us calling them that years ago!"

Ingredients :

• 1 cup butter
• 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup chopped pecans
• 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar for dusting, or as needed
• 1/4 cup finely crushed peppermint candy canes (optional)

Instructions :

Prep : 30M	Cook : 30M	Ready in : 45M

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cream the butter with 1/2 cup of the confectioners' sugar and the vanilla. Mix in the flour, pecans, and salt. Roll about 1 tablespoon or so of dough into balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until bottoms are golden, about 15 minutes. Do not allow these cookies to get too brown: it's better to undercook them than to overcook them. While cookies are still hot, roll them in confectioners' sugar. Once they have cooled, roll them in confectioners' sugar once more.

Notes :

• Variation: sometimes for Christmas, Grandma would also add some crushed candy canes. Add finely crushed candy canes to the confectioners' sugar used for the final dusting.
