How to make mexican wedding cookies:

Cream butter, 1/2 cup sugar, vanilla and salt until fluffy. Stir in flour until well blended. Chill 30 minutes or until firm enough to handle. Shape in 1-inch balls. Place 1-inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet and bake in preheated 375° oven until light golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove to rack (close to each other) and while cookies are still warm, sift heavily with confectioners sugar. Cool, then store airtight in cool, dry place. Before serving, sift cookies with more confectioners sugar. Makes about 48.

Note: If desired, stir in 1 cup very finely chopped pecans with flour. However, these cookies will not be so tender as plain cookies.
