This recipe was sooo good. I substituted 1 1/2 - 2 cups of finely ground blanched almonds (in the food processor instead of the pecans.

These were not good...I just made them and I threw them in the trash. I used half the recipe and followed the entire directions. I would never make them again.

This is such an easy recipe and always a huge hit. Just make sure the butter is at room temperature and beat for the full 10-15 minutes and it is perfect every time! I have subsituted vanilla for almond extract, walnuts instead of pecans, and with no nuts. Very versitile recipe.

Does this recipe really mean 2 tablespoons of vanilla? Most call for 2 teaspoons, or 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1 of almond. But 2 tablespoons, really?
(I do love these cookies when my mom makes them from her similar recipe with 1 tsps. vanilla.

These cookies ended up being delicious, but the recipe was very flawed. I tripled this to make enough cookies to give as Christmas gifts, and I followed the recipe to a T, but the cookies melted completely in the oven. I had to add 4 extra cups of flour (remember, the recipe was tripled for them to hold together, and bake properly.

Great cookie. I substituted one cup of gluten free flour for AP Flour to create something a bit lower in gluten...just an idea since the recipe called for pastry flour. I rolled them into little round balls, then slightly flattened to bake. They are perfect bite sized and incredibly tender/flaky. Love them...will keep this recipe.

I had been looking for a good Mexican wedding cookie recipe for a long time but could not find one that tasted as good as the ones at a local bakery. Then I ran across this recipe. I noticed that it had a 5 star rating so I decided to give it a try. OMG!!! These are so easy to make and they are absolutely delicious! I made 1/2 a batch with pecans and 1/2 a batch with toasted almonds. I could not find pastry flour so I used all purpose and it was just fine. I'm making another two batches tomorrow to take to a Cinco de Mayo celebration.

I made these in Home Ec class in 7th grade. I fell in love with them but lost the recipe. I read over the recipes here and decided on this one. I am glad I did! Excellent recipe! Makes a lot of cookies. Mmmmmm.

Favorite cookie that I added this year to my Christmas cookie tray. I made in November, froze and then in December took out of freezer and they were perfect. Thanks!
