I used your recipe to inaugurate my first KitchenAid Stand mixer over the weekend! The cookies are delicious and light - not dense as some of the ones I’ve had at various bakeries - I’ve had many because it’s a favorite. Thank you for sharing this delectable recipe.
Absolutely love these…there are so many recipes for these called by other names but their recipes were never as delicious as these Mexican Wedding Cookies! Thank u
An easier way to powder them in powdered sugar at the end is to put the sugar in a brown paper bag and just throw them in maybe 5 at a time and move the bag around slowly. They come out perfectly covered without any excess ;)
Hi Bonnie! Wow, thank so much! You’re wonderful! I appreciate you for watching and for taking time to leave such a kind note 🥰 Glad to be connected ❤️, Marie
Hello Brenda! So glad to be connected and thank you for watching ❤️ I do try to keep my shows simple and informative so hopefully people will be inspired and not too intimidated to try some of the dishes 😊 I’m so glad to hear you enjoy and appreciate the format. Stay tuned for new videos this fall ❤️, Marie
Hello! Thanks so much for watching! I’m glad the video was helpful. You can grab the recipe on my website MarieSaba.com. Can’t wait to hear how you like them! Hugs, marie
Thank you for your special recipes that you willingly share with us. I love your fave utensil ideas as well. I'm glad I happened upon your channel. Love them
I used to make these Mexican Wedding Cakes every year for Christmas for my family. Now it's just me and my fur baby so I don't bake much anymore but they really are good cookies ☺️
@@marieskitchen I love these cookies they are a bit time consuming to make but I always thought they were worth the effort. Hopefully you had a lovely holiday as well ❤️🩹
Marie, I am new to your channel. I really enjoy the recipes that you share. You make cooking so simple and easy to understand. You are the best at explaining cooking terms. Thanks for all the great recipes.
Hi Marian! Thanks for watching! I’m so glad to be connected! And I appreciate your feedback so much. My passion is helping people gain confidence in the kitchen, so it means a lot that my videos are helping you do that 🥰 Please reach out anytime with questions or requests - I’m here for ya! Hugs, Marie
Hi Marta! Yes! One of our favorites for those two reasons! Grab the recipe for exact measurement on my website MarieSaba.com. Thanks for watching ❤️Happy holidays and big hugs, marie
Another fabulous recipe that worked GREAT at high altitude. A lot of times dough like this is way to dry at higher altitude and it just falls apart. I didn't have to change a thing.
Hi Elizabeth! Thanks for watching and for taking time to leave a note! Love to hear from viewers 🥰 Yes I think these cookies have many names in all different cultures! They’re so easy and delicious, I can see why everyone loves them 😊 Thanks again, marie
Another burn trick…run the burn IMMEDIATELY under ice cold water until your hand is numb/freezing cold. The burn won’t even appear, but you have to keep your hand under the COLD water for about 10 minutes at least depending on how bad the burn is.
Hi Pat! So lovely to hear from you! Thank you for watching and especially for taking time to leave a note - always wonderful to hear from viewers 🥰 I’m so glad you like my recipes 👍🏻 Stay tuned for more videos this fall and feel free to send questions or requests if there’s something you’d like to learn ❤️, Marie
Two sticks of salted butter Three-quarter cups of powdered sugar 2 teaspoons vanilla extract oven 375° One and three-quarter cup flour Chopticon’s One cup of pecans fine 1 3/4 cups of flour then mix all together everything together till forms though
How wonderful! I just made a batch tonight and everyone enjoyed them 🥰 Thanks for watching and happy birthday to your daughter! You can print the recipe on my site MarieSaba.com 👍🏻
Thanks so much for all the details. My mother always made these, and my job was to gently roll them in the powdered sugar. Just one taste brings back the best memories of Christmas preparation. I am wondering if there are different bands of powdered sugar. I am looking for a taste of the past, and the Whole Foods band didn't taste quite right.
I made these today (12/22) for Christmas and I cannot believe how easy these are to make and how delicious they are. Your video states 1 and 3/4 cup of flour but the written states 2 cups of flour. Which is preferred? I used 2 cups but was wondering if you updated the recipe. I know these will now be my family's favorite (over chocolate chip, snickerdoodles and peanut butter blossoms). Also, what is the best way to store these for a few days? Thank you so much, Marie. Merry Christmas🎄🎄
Hi Joan! So glad to hear you enjoyed the cookies! You are correct to use the 2 cups flour from the written recipe. I must have mis-spoken on the video - oops! The best way to store the cookies in an air tight container on the countertop. Thanks so much for watching! Also, let me know if there’s something else you’d like to see on a video! I’m always looking for inspiration 😊 xo, Marie
I’m Mexican and I’ve made these for years along with my mother and I never knew they’re known as Mexican wedding cookies! We always called them butterball cookies 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh that’s too funny! These cookies or similar versions are actually popular in many cultures, so they’re known by other names, too ☺️ We can add “butterballs” to that list! 🥰 I love that you made them with your mom. So special to have that memory. Big hugs, marie
Thanks so much! You can definitely add chocolate chips (mini are best) but I’m not sure the dough would be quite right without the nuts. Let me double check the proportions and see if it could work. Back to you soon!
Hi again Sherry! Yes you should be able to sub in chocolate chips. I haven’t tried it so I’m not exactly sure how they will turn out, but I think they will be delicious! Everything else in the recipe stays the same. And I do recommend mini chocolate chips if you have them :)
@@marieskitchen YAY the mini morsels was a hit. The family especially my granddaughter loved them. Will make again!! Thank you and have a Happy and Blessed New Year!!
Myself and two other friends make these cookies. No one can follow the same recipe. The original recipe is flavoured with nutmeg. There is nothing like fresh nutmeg. Furthermore, the pecans should be roasted while they are hole which constitutes a much richer nutty flavor. Do not use a food processor when you break the pecans there’s nothing more exciting than finding a big chunk of pecan in your cookie. The pecan is not meant to be ground into a flour like an almond flour. Put the round balls of dough in the fridge before cooking, then they will maintain their round shape. the round balls get rolled in a bowl of icing sugar and then set aside for a little bit. And then you roll them again in the icing sugar. When you bite into them, you should taste the nutmeg.
Hi Jan! I finally made you a chocolate version! It only took me 2 years 😅 Hope you love it. We sure do! Thanks for watching and for your wonderful request! Hugs, Marie Mexican Wedding Cookies | Chocolate Version 🤩 ruclips.net/video/9S9Ik65Sjtw/видео.html
Hi! Yes, you can freeze the dough! Make the dough into balls and then freeze them (spaced apart and separating layers with wax paper so the balls don’t stick together). Thaw at room temp for an hour before baking. Let me know if you need anything else!
Could almond flavoring or almond meal be used in place of chopped pecans and in what quantity? Several members of our family cannot tolerate chopped nuts. Thank you!
Hi! Yes, almond meal in place for the chopped pecan would be great. Use 1 cup almond meal in place of the 1 cup pecans. Hope that helps! Here’s the full recipe: mariesaba.com/recipes/mexican-wedding-cookies/
נראה טעים מאוד. אני אישית לא אוהבת עוגיות עם אבקת סוכר, אז אני לא שמה... טיפ בשבילך כדי שהעוגיות יהיו מכוסות יותר עם אבקת סוכר ומושלגות יפה: לגלגל אותן באבקת סוכר פעמיים - פעם ראשונה כאשר הן חמות ובפעם השנייה לאחר שהן מתקררות לגמרי 💙💜
Hi! Thanks for watching and for taking time to leave a note! Always love to hear from viewers 😊 The cookie recipe makes about 24 cookies. The full recipe is here: mariesaba.com/recipes/mexican-wedding-cookies/ Let me know if you need anything else and please stay tuned for more new recipes soon ❤️, Marie
Measuring chopped is better, but this recipe is really flexible so it works measuring either way. Good eye though - you should measure the chopped 👍🏻 Thanks for watching ❤️
Hi! Thanks for double checking! The written recipe is correct. I apologize for the confusion. Sometimes I say the wrong thing in the video 😅, so best to always use the written recipe for reference. And of course always feel free to comment here or email me if you need anything. Happy to help. Thanks for watching and for your patience ❤️, Marie
Hi Patsy, thanks for asking! It should be 2 cups. The recipe is correct. I’m so sorry about the confusion. Please let me know if you need anything else 😊. Big hugs, Marie
I will update to say that i kept going and i had to end up adding a little more flour/powdered sugar. They turned out real good. I think they would have been more moist if i didnt have to do that, but they were still really good. Im still confused on why it was really creamy and not dough like. 😕 if you have any thoughts let me know! Thanks!
Hi there! Sorry just seeing this! The video has an error - it should be 2 cups flour, not 1 3/4 cups. I’m so sorry for the confusion. The recipe on my website is correct and I’ll add the correct recipe to the caption. Good job to you for making those adjustments!! 👏🏻👏🏻 I’m so glad they turned out well! And I’m so sorry for the error. I try SO hard to make everything on my channel super reliable and I’m not sure how this error got passed me 😩 Thanks so much for watching and you can always find the correct, printable recipe on my website MarieSaba.com if you have any other questions. ❤️, Marie
Hi! Thanks so much! Yes there are lots of names for these cookies. Russian or Swedish tea cookies, snowballs, wedding cookies, or cuernitos when made in crescent shape. Love to hear all the variations!
This is an international cookie. They are under different names italian butterball cookies, russian tea cookies, mexican wedding cookies, snowball cookies, etc. Either way its delicious 😊🥰

I have Never heard any Mexican call them butterball cookies and I live on the border and in a town with 98% Mexicans... but I have Now ‼️❤️
Aren't they called Polvorones in Mexico?
