Russian Teacakes

These little cookies have about a bazillion names, including Mexican Wedding Cakes and Snowballs. They are numtious!

RUSSIAN TEACAKES
1 lb. butter, softened (that's right, LIVE IT UP)
4 cups flour, sifted
1½ cups walnuts or pecans, finely chopped
1 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
additional powdered sugar for rolling

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Mix together all ingredients (except additional powdered sugar) and roll into walnut-sized balls. Bake 35 minutes. While still warm, roll in powdered sugar. Allow to cool and roll in powdered sugar again. Makes lots of little powdered-sugary bites o' goodness.

Mom informs me this is Tim Hart's favorite cookie. He's got good taste.

Probably stolen from the Betty Crocker Cookbook.
