These are similar to Mexican wedding cookies or Danish wedding cookies, but have the mild tang of cream cheese. Easy to make; they are small so you can pop one in your mouth right after the other. Little sweet snowy confections that melt in your mouth!
1/2 cup butter, softened
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups flour
1 Tbsp granulated sugar
Dash salt
1 cup finely chopped pecans
Confectioners' sugar
In a small bowl, cream butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, sugar and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in pecans (dough will be crumbly).
