Delicious Russian Teacakes

Last night my daughter and I wanted something sweet and buttery so she made us a batch of Russian Teacakes from our Everyday Cooking cookbook. These cookies are also known as Mexican Wedding cookies. Our friends used to give us a container of these cookies every Christmas and we LOVED them. But, we've never made them before so we wanted to give it a whirl. These would be excellent cookies for a Christmas cookie swap or elf surprise!

A link for Russian Teacakes is provided below in case you want to make them. You can eliminate the salt if desired.   

Crazy for Crust - This website also contains other fun Russian Teacake recipes using Rolos, Reese's, chocolate chips, and Funfetti sprinkles. We can't wait to try the Rolo Stuffed and Reese's Russian Teacakes.

Checkout the Everyday Cooking cookbook and Vicki Bentley's Everyday Homemaking blog for more information about this awesome cookbook. My review for this book will post around August 22nd-24th so keep an eye out for it so you can read about our experiences. We've been making lots of the meals and desserts.   

I will link this post up at Sometimes Wordless Wednesday at Tots and Me.
