Mexican Wedding Cakes

So the story is that the U.S. had some frosty relations with the Russians, so the country of origin for tea or wedding cakes changed to Mexico. But these buttery, nutty confections may have had Middle Eastern beginnings. In any event, bake to let them melt crunch against your taste buds.
Cream together:
1 cup butter
4 T sugar
Then add:
2 tsp. vanilla
2 cups flour
Mix well. Then add 1 cup chopped walnuts. Roll into small balls the size of a small walnut. Bake 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 12 minutes. Roll in powdered sugar while still warm. Makes 3 dozen.
