These cookies are a great make-ahead dessert. I made them a few days ahead of time and they were still fresh and delicious.

I've never been a fan of Mexican wedding cakes, but these cookies changed my mind. They're so light and airy, and the powdered sugar coating is the perfect finishing touch.

I added a little bit of cinnamon to the dough and they were amazing! I highly recommend trying this variation.

I made these cookies gluten-free by using almond flour instead of all-purpose flour. They turned out great!
