Whether you call these Mexican wedding cookies, Russian tea cakes, or snowballs, they’re still melt-in-your-mouth delicious.
- 1 Cup Finely Chopped Walnuts
- 1 Cup Butter (Room Temperature)
- 1 1/4 Cups Gluten-Free Powdered Sugar (Divided)
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 Teaspoon Almond Extract
- 2 Cups Gluten-Free Flour Blend
- 1/4 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
- In large-size bowl beat butter and 1/2 cup powdered sugar until smooth. Beat in vanilla and almond extracts. Add flour blend, walnuts, cinnamon, and kosher salt. Beat until well combined. Cover and place in refrigerator 2 or more hours.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Remove dough from fridge and let stand 5 to 10 minutes. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. With mini cookie scoop, scoop and roll dough into 1-inch balls. Place on cookie sheets, spacing 1 inch apart.
