Gluten Free Mexican Wedding Cookie

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1/2 cup of powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.

3. Stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.

4. Gradually add the gluten-free all-purpose flour to the mixture, mixing until a dough forms.

5. Fold in the finely chopped pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

6. Using clean hands, roll the dough into small, uniform balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

7. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the bottoms are lightly golden brown.

8. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet.

9. While the cookies are still warm, gently roll them in additional powdered sugar until completely coated.

10. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
