Russian Tea Cakes Recipe: These Traditional Holiday Cookies Are Super Easy To Make
Holiday baking season is officially upon us. If you’re looking for an easy recipe that everyone will love, look no further than these tasty Russian Tea Cakes.
Also known as Mexican, Italian or Swedish wedding cookies — or sometimes even just snowballs — these simple cookies are a cinch to make and can incorporate a variety of nuts, including macadamia, cashew, hazelnut, pecans or black walnuts. Betty Crocker suggests toasting and finely grinding the nuts before mixing them into the dough.
Similar to shortbread, these cookies are done when they’re firm to the touch, so be careful not to over-bake them. As the name indicates, these cookies are great when served alongside a cup of tea, so invite some friends over to enjoy these tasty treats as part of a proper afternoon tea.
