We grew up calling these Mexican wedding cookies. They are SO good!
Yes!
We called them Swedish Wedding cookies 😂
So did we
Yep, it's how I was taught, too.
That's what my Grammy always called them. She only made them at Christmas. She was the only person I knew who made them.
I have this same recipe. When it was given to me, I was told that they were Pecan Dreams. Someone else gave it to the person that gave it to me. Back in the 80s I would just pinch off some dough and make the cookies. A few years back I started using a small cookie scoop to make the balls. Now they all come out the same size! I always get compliments on the cookies and people always ask for the recipe.
We also called them wedding cookies they're so good! Makes a good holiday cookie thankyou for the memory have a wonderful day 🌻
I make these every year. I prefer to use almond flavoring instead of vanilla. It adds a lil something 😊. You two are the sunshine on a cloudy day. Looking forward to what you bring to us next time. Stay true, stay warm hearted and stay faithful ❤
Have you ever added orange extract? Delish
@@michaelbiddy2324 no but that would be great!
In my family we shape the dough into a crescent moon shape and call them Crescent Cookies. One of my favorites. Buttery shortbread & pecans, what's not to love?
I remember my mom doing that a few years when I was small, always for Christmas.
So wonderful to see this tradition carried on to new generations. I have made this cookie recipe for the past 62 years, and my mother before me, and my grandmother before her. I even have their recipe cards. Christmas is the time for traditions. Thank you.
Amen sistah!
AMEN! Priceless forever memories! ❤
What a warm, cozy cabin home you've made! Mom used to make those too. Pecan Balls I think we called them.😊
Ms lori we always made spiced grape juice
Grape juice in crock pot
Add 1 sliced orange
1 slices lemon
2 cinnamon sticks
4 whole cloves
Heat it to simmer leave on low longer the better
House will smell wonderful😊
I bet it tastes delish, too!
Thanks for the recipe…appreciate your kindness…god bless xox
Oh wow I am going to make this, I have never seen this recipe, Thank you very much!!
Yum! That sounds delicious. Thank you for the recipe.
Add a fifth of grey goose and you'll also feel wonderful!
I am 73 yrs old and I remember my grandmother teaching me how to make these when I was quite small. We always called them Butterballs and we still call them that. I hope my grandchildren will be making these for their children. These are my favorite cookies
We Called Them Amish Courting Balls
We call them, "Moldy Mice" !!!!
@@barbarabrunson8588hahahahaha that's funny !!!!!
I aiways add cornstarch to get the flour, it makes the cookie extra light and almost melts in your mouth
Oh my goodness My neighbor gave me this recipe and several others when I was 12 years old. And I have been making them ever since and I am now sixty eight!And we called them butterballs. I still have the Original three by five card with the recipe. I just made a batch tonight but will roll them tomorrow and bake them. I always hid some in a coffee can under my bed. Because I had three brothers and would never get any if I left them all in the kitchen😂
My mom made these every Christmas and I have as well. She always called them snowballs. And we wrap the dough around a hershey kiss. Delicious.
I made these for last weekends family gathering! My recipe calls them Mexican Wedding Cookies. But it’s slightly different… first you just break up the pecans into small chunks . I do it with a plastic bag and a hammer lol, then toast the pecans just till they smell good. The rest of the recipe is the same but I mix it by hand and I usually do add the coconut. Also I roll them twice in the powdered sugar. I love these cookies!!❤️🤗🐝 btw, I love your champagne glass idea! Maybe add a red ribbon on the stem?❤️
I'm from Southern California and we too call them Mexican Wedding Cookies! 💚🧚♂
Great idea to toast them first ..😊❤❤❤❤❤
We always had these during the holidays. Mom (and I) ground the pecans in a crank cheese grater with the hopper and the different wheels you can put in - I think it's called a mouli but don't quote me on that - with the fine wheel, and it grinds them just right. We called them pecan sandies but they were not sandy in the mouth! She always made them ahead and let them mellow in a tin for about a month. Superb.
This is what my grandmother called them. But it's still the same.
Love my mouli!!
Those are a must every Christmas and we only have them at that time of year so it keeps it special. Thanks for the idea of adding the powdered sugar to the pecans while processing. We also do buffet to many of us to get around one table. 😍
This brought tears to my eyes..My precious Sister made these cookies every year it was her specialty oh how bittersweet the memories are, cancer took her from us, and I carry on her tradition every year now and we’ve come to call them Trish’s cookies and now her grandchildren will make these when they are old enough to learn I will teach them. Thank you Lori for the precious memories that are flooding my soul today
Those cookies are one of my favorites! It's also called wedding cookies.
We always called these cookies "wedding cookies". They are a favorite.
Yes, aren't they?! We called them Amish courting balls
This is a family favorite that I make every Christmas! I also want to make some cinnamon apple walnut bread for Holidays! I just bought my turkey breast for Thanksgiving. I’m planning to use your recipe! My favorite! Just planning ahead! Blessings!
I vote for a sweet potato casserole without marshmallows. Maybe even a savory sweet potato casserole. 😮
I wasn't sure what they were called. Love these cookies, and pecans. Haven't had them for yrs. Thank you. ❤🙏 Rose
We call them Pecan Butter Balls ! A must have every Christmas for years and years !! Cant wait to make my first batch of the year 🎄🎅🍪
I make these every year and gift them to family members. My mom is 93 and still going but does not bake anymore. She made these every year and we know them as Butter Balls. Since I am 68, I have enjoyed these for a lot of Christmases. We only have them at Christmas and it would not be Christmas without them. Thanks for sharing this old recipe and the memories it evokes
There comes a time during festive season when you just want something light to share and these are perfect. The recipe I have uses mixed nuts. Which is usually a good recipe for Christmas left over nuts. Love to all your viewers and I don't believe anyone can eat these and be hateful at the same time.
Great idea ! Thanks. I’m trying to put some things my mom and grandmother always made, to put on the sweets table. This was one of them.
I have been making pecan sandies is what mine was called since I was 10 years old, this is one of my favorites and by the way I’m 65 now. So excited about your Holiday collection your doing. Thank you for sharing all your tricks and tips.❤
This has always been one of my favorite cookies. It's a staple for Christmas in our family. Have to admit I've never used my food processor to make them, you know that will be changing now that you have showed us how much easier it is with it. I've heard them call Christmas Balls, Mexican Tea Cakes, Russian Teacakes, Pecan Cookies, it's all the same recipe, whichever they are always delicious. Thanks for such a cute idea of serving them.
Me too using the food processor is a game changer. We always called them snowballs. Love them.
We called them Amish courting balls.
I have always known these as Russian Tea Cakes or Norwegian Nut Balls. I live in Minnesota, I make these every year. I have used Imitation Rum flavoring as well.
Yes!! They were called Russian Tea Cakes in my moms old Betty Crocker Cookbook.
But the recipe called for walnuts.
This is my absolute favorite cookie! I learned something new with you to use powdered sugar with the nuts when you chop them! The best thing about these cookies is that my hubby doesn't care for nuts so they are ALL MINE!!!;0)
this definitely a wonderful & delicious old recipe Ms. Lori. I remember mom making these growing up, and I made them for my own family every Christmas - everyone liked them! I hope to make them again this year too! Thanks for the reminder. blessings to you & Mr. Brown.
Love those cookies...I like pecans in just about anything.😋🍁🍂🙏 Stay warm and be safe.
I love these! They have been a part of Christmas forever!
I've never made them myself though. Afraid to as I'd eat them all, no control! ❤
Same here. No control.
Hey 👋 Mrs. Lori and Mr. Brown 👋❤🩹, Yum 😋 love them cookies, yep won’t be long now n Christmas will be here before ya know it, I think it’s a cute idea 🥰👍🏽thanks for all ya do to bring this to us, love ❤ y’all and the channel , wish I had one right now lol 😂 , I use to cook the whole thanksgiving myself, but they all gone now, so I’m alone, y’all are company for me..I love ❤ y’all have a blessed day y’all , will see y’all soon ❤🩹🥰
I’ve made these many times I call them Mexican Wedding Rings
These delicious cookies melt in your mouth. I called them Russian tea cakes & Mexican wedding cookies. Rolling them in powdered sugar while still warm makes them perfect 😋
Rolling warm and several times
What a great creative idea
This is my favorite cookie! Thank you for sharing God bless you and your family❤
These are a staple on my cookie list every year. Thanks for sharing your recipes, Miss Lori 🙂❤️
I had to giggle Miss Lori when I saw these cookies… I made these years ago and put them down into ziplock bag to coat with powdered sugar, they were a bit to warm and melted the plastic, needless to say I had a big mess to clean up and lost a lot of the cookies 😂 I sent you an email the other day about the cookbook hoping to hear something soon if you have time. God Bless.
I havent got the email, can you resend it
I sent it to the email in your comment section is that correct?
Yummy Yummy of course! The cabin looks fantastic too! Rest well and Sweet Dreams!!
I call these wedding cookies, pecan balls… they are a hit and I’ve make this for many years… they’re a hit anytime I serve them… blessings to you two❤️🙏
I’ve been making these since the early 80’s. They are sooooo good.
My recipe is called Swedish Tea Cakes. I also make the chocolate version. They are called Chocolate Truffle Cookies. Both came from a Pillsbury Cook Book. It was free, when purchasing two 5lb. Bags of flour. It’s my most treasured baking cook book.
I really enjoyed the video.
Praying for all the people suffering. God bless y’all.
We called them Amish Courting Balls!
Good afternoon. It sounds delicious!
I also make these cookies for Christmas, but I put black walnuts in mine.
I love walnuts I bet it is good ❤
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! And may God continue to bless you and your family 👪
I use my food processor to make my hot cocoa mixes. We make these all the time when all the kids were together. Love them.
A very delicious cookie. I have made these for years and they have always been a big hit with everyone. sometimes I will stick a Hersheys kiss inside them and those are good too.....I can't wait to make your Pecan Pie balls I'm dying to try those....Thank you and God Bless you....
We have always called them snowballs & I agree they’re so good. Will plan on trying your recipe this year. Thx!
Snowball!!!!!!!
These are my favorite Christmas cookies Ms Lori!! Always appreciate your videos and your kind gentle way. Blessings to you and Mr. Brown 🙏❤️
B
My mama's favorite cookie (we call Christmas Nut Balls) that I make every Christmas- a tear here and there remembering every year we all made these cookies together ❤️
Thanks! They would be great with almonds and cherry extract, poppy seeds and lemon extract, etc!
Almond extract‼️👍🏻
I remember making these with my Great Grandmaw! She was slow and her little fingers would hit from arthritis and she would always father us girls to help her make them! I was about 5 yrs old and I help to roll them into balls. We each had a part in it. She had the sweetest softest voice and would sing to us while we worked! Sometimes we would all sing along! She sang so pretty and sweet! At only 4' 10" tall and 115 lbs maybe, She still could get around the kitchen. I'll never forget my Grandmaw because to me, She was like a little Angel. We always said a prayer before we started baking. It was 6 of us girls and we took turns saying prayer on cookie baking days and we all looked forward to going to Grandmaws and Papaws house! Smalls but so warm and loving. She called these cookies, Butter Snow Balls, and Us girls always called them Grandmaws Angel Snowballs! I'm 4' 10" and weigh 120 lbs. Her hair came down to her knees and was a beautiful Grey that she braided and kept in a bun. My hair comes down midway to my thigh and I keep mine braided! My Aunts always say I remind them of Great Grandmaw Margie! That to me is such a great compliment and a blessing to be like her! My Granny stepped in to pick up when Grandmaw couldn't do or anymore and she also was a shirt shall woman just as precious as her momma! My Momma also baked these Cookies throughout my life and I've continues to do it for my children, Grandchildren, and now 5 Great Grandchildren! Only 4 are old enough to eat them as my last one was born just a month ago. A precious baby boy! My daughter makes these for them and my Granddaughters are continuing with all our old great family recipes! 6 Generations of making these Cookies and Many more Old Recipes! Thank you Miss Lori for all your Recipes and your Precious time you spend with us all. I keep you and Danny in my Prayers daily along with many others. I pray for this world and all the suffering so many are going through. Its sad and I feel it in my heart but the light and love of Our Lord Jesus keeps me going. I pray for Israel and innocent people on both sides. I just pray for everybody and Mercy for the mean ones... Gods love keeps me lifted up... I love you and Mr Brown... Ya'll stay Safe and Warm... I look forward to Your next Video! God Bless. 🙏🙏❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏
Thank you for sharing ,
What Beautiful memories!
😊
They did look good, and I will surely make these. I love your pretty cabin, and it looks so warm and cozy. Have a good weekend. I’m looking forward to the cooler weather. 💞
You always make the best recipes. Thank you 😊
I make those. I call them lady finger because I roll them into fingers. I mix all ingredients by hand, no mixer, processor really needed. Love your cooking.❤️
LOVE these! They are my absolute favorite cookie! YUMMY!
Love these! We call them Russian Tea Cakes
Pecan Sandies. Thanks for the recipe. 😊
Thanks for fond memories.
Yes
One of my favorite cookies!!! I grew up calling them Wedding Cookies!!! That's what my Family called them!!! God Bless Us All!!!
Yes we’ve made these for years every Christmas since I was a child except we use walnuts instead of pecans and we call them nut butter balls. Still have the original recipe from a magazine long ago.
So happy to see you today... and to spend time with everyone in this community. Reading all the comments just makes me smile.
Thank you Lori, I love your down to earth videos. I absolutely love your kitchen. Blessings to you and your family!❤
Many years ago I used to buy my husband similar cookies around Christmas time. They were so good. Thanks for this recipe! I will be making them for the family and hopefully will bring back a memory!❤😘🙏🏻✨
Yes. Me too ! Sold as Ruths cashew balls , right ?
The cookies were Archway, I thought they were pecan but could have been cashew. They were good.@@Rosetta-zb4gm
I was just thinking of making these cookies yesterday for the holiday. I love them! We call them pecan sandies. I like how you made yours by puting powdered sugar on the pecans and using the food processor. I am for sure going to make some and use the food processor this time. Great timing! I have also dipped them in chocolate so the top is covered with the chocolate and they are good that way too!
That’s what we called them! And we didn’t grind the pecans, left them in small pieces. ❤️
Hello I am from Pennsylvania and we have made these since I was a child. A few differences are ours around here we use walnuts, ours are rolled as soon as they come out. As they cool they will be tacky and ready for next roll . You have showed us to use the food processor. Thank you
These seem to be like a Russian Tea Cake. I give those to my neighbors every Christmas in a pretty box. You just gave me an idea though, and I am going to make them now and freeze. We are so busy around Christmas so that would ease things up a little. They look so good and with a cup of tea. Yum!
I have a recipe like this that is called Mexican Wedding Cookies. I don't make them anymore because I eat them all!!! So good! Thanks Mrs. Lori.
Those are beautiful cookies! I think my grandma used to make those with black walnuts! The looked just like that and they were light and not over sweet. Have you heard of that? Thank you for sharing!!
Took lots of work to pick the nut meats out of the black Walnuts, but the taste is the best!!
I remember having those as a kid. I haven't had those in years. Thanks for the yummy memory. Lots of loves and hugs sent to you both..
I love your idea.
And those cookies are delicious
Hey Miss Lori! Those were always my favorite treat. If only i could make them sugar free. I finally made it to the little store in Dalton. The owners are precious. Got some milk from Simpson farms too, very nice man. Take care dear friend! ❤
We love these! They are called Mexican Wedding Cookies around here.
These are my favorite Christmas cookies! I use walnuts and call them Snowballs. 😊
Nana always made these at Christmas time! She called them Moravians. She would make date pinwheels, Angelicoes, and so many others! She always dipped them in either red or green colored sugar; had to do it while they were still hot from the oven so the pretty sugar stayed on, so it took tough hands! She didn't like confection's sugar on them.
A must have for Christmas ...we always called them Snowballs when we made them for Christmas !!! Sometimes they would also be called wedding cookies !!! Love these cookies !!!❤😋
This seems to be close to some cookies that were gifted to my husband years ago at Christmas, I really liked them and always wished I had the recipe. Im going to definitely make these for Christmas this year!!! I love your videos, you are so interesting to watch and hear your pleasant voice❤
I can’t wait to make those, they’re my favorites! I still have pecans left in the freezer from last year.
I chop my pecans by hand with my butcher knife,my grandmother made them with and without pecans, my Mother was the one that really was a wonderful Christmas cookie and candy gift giver, thanks for those memories..
Thank you for this wonderful cookie recipe. We appreciate you.
Lori, cook the hashbrown casserole or sometimes called funeral potatoes. They are so delicious! Love y'all so much!
Thanks so much Mrs. Lori! This is one of my favorite cookie recipes. I could gobble up lots of them in one sitting! God bless you and Mr. Brown and your whole family! I pray your dear daughter has an easy delivery and that Mamma and sweet baby are and stay healthy! What a wonderful Christmas present for your whole family! Take care!! Much love!!
I just love your holiday videos. I loved the little home tour. You're always so personable and homey and inviting.❤ I recently started making these cookies, idk what took me so long. They are delicious and like you said, melt in your mouth. I am going to use your recipe this year. God bless ya, Ms Lori! Happy Fall y'all. 🧡🍁🍂 And prayers for your daughter and grandbaby!

They definitely are gone in a hurry they are so good. Ive always called them Danish wedding cookies. They taste just as good by any name. Love uou and God bless you snd Mr Brown. Congratulations for a new grand baby. They are all so precious.💖💙
Your home sure is beautiful and cozy ❤ I've been making Christmas cookie baskets every year for family and friends , 44 years now. I change them up with different things each year and I've made those a few times 😊 I like putting some candies in with the cookies and other baked desserts, as well as my fudges 😊 a traditional gifting thing I always do
I make these every Thanksgiving and Christmas. I have one recipe that’s calls them Wedding Cookies and I have one from the 1980s that call them Cresents. Whatever they are a favorite at my house. I make 3or 4 batches every year.
Hi from Virginia. ! I’m always so at peace listening to both of you. The recipes are wonderful as is your stories. You are a blessing to utube and I pray for this peace and kindness of all our nations. He is our Hope And you are strong in saying so !! God bless and I can’t wait for the new grand baby news. I have 7 myself and always have room for as many more there might be in His plan. Thanks again for all you both share 😊
We made them when I was small. They are cookies that you never get enough of them. Thanks for reminding me about them.
I will definitely try this recipe. Thank You! Always enjoy your videos. We have got our first dusting of snow here today.
Your home is so cozy and peaceful and comfortable looking. It takes me back to my Grandma’s house. I love these cookies. One of my favorites. I love a simple, not overly sweet.
Definitely a keeper ❤
Takes me back to younger days when Mom made these every year. With a new granddaughter am starting early this year with baking....Like the idea of adding powdered sugar with the pecans! Love you and can't wait for more to come!
My DIL loves these cookies. I have to make some just for her every Christmas. Lol. And peanut butter blossoms.
Is that a recipe that uses powdered sugar with the butter? Also, I don't have any problem with you not wanting to add coconut to the dough-- it's a recipe for pecan butter cookies, not coconut balls, or macaroons.
