In Mexico, these rich cookies are called "Little Wedding Cakes" and usually are served with hot chocolate. Since moving here close to Mexico from the Midwest, I've enjoyed trying authentic recipes-they're a sharp departure from the Iowa favorites I grew up with! I love introducing these to relatives and friends! -Terri Lins, San Diego, California
