This is my variation of the popular Mexican Wedding Cookie. My sister Robyn makes these every year, and we can never get enough. So I had to have the recipe to make more.

1 cup butter
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup walnuts, finely chopped in food processor

Steps:

  • Cream butter with the 1/4 cup of sugar and blend well.
