A Mexican Wedding Cake with a twist, the addition of Cardamom. I especially like to nibble these cookies with a Middle Eastern Tea with Cardamom.

Steps:
- 1. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and half of the powdered sugar until smooth. Beat in the vanilla.
- 2. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cardamom and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture. Gently stir in the pecans.
- 3. Roll into 1-in. balls. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
- 4. Bake in a preheated 350° for 15-17 minutes or until edges turn a light brown. Roll warm cookies in remaining powdered sugar. Cool on wire racks.
- 5. Note: If you can't find cardamom seeds to grind, you can use pre-ground cardamom, however, it might not offer the same flavor-punch as freshly ground seeds.
