Mexican wedding cookies

I was pleasantly surprised with how our Mexican wedding cookies turned out. I did not think I would like them as much as I did, since I don’t really love nuts. I expected a dry cookie and I worried the confectioners sugar would get soggy after 24 hours. Totally not the case. They are crumbly when you take a bite, but not dry. I don’t know how that works exactly—maybe it’s magic. And the confectioners sugar? Not soggy after 24 hours. Not soggy after 72 hours! No joke—these cookies were still good after sitting on my kitchen table for a week. Magic again? Perhaps.
P.S. Check back soon for updated photos! I’ll be making Mexican Wedding Cookies again in the coming weeks for the holidays, but wanted to get the recipe up now so you can make them too!
