pinch of salt
1-1/2 cups toasted ground hazelnuts
Butter Cream Filling (2 cups)
3/4 cup sweet butter, softened
7/8 cup confectioner's (icing) sugar

1/2 cup Kahlua
2 large fresh mangos**

Whole Grain (Fake) Mexican Wedding Cookies
101 Cookbooks
1 cup pecans, toasted and cooled to room temperature
1 cup organic unsalted butter
1/2 cup fine grain evaporated cane sugar (I used Alter-Eco brand)
A splash of vanilla extract
A splash of bourbon (optional)
1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry four
1 cup oat flour
1/2 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
organic powdered sugar for dusting
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Puree the pecans in a food processor until they become a fine meal. You don't want to go so far that they become a paste.
In a mixer beat the butter until it becomes creamy, add the sugar and mix until everything is creamy and lighter in color. The vanilla and bourbon go in next followed but the nut meal. Slowly add the flours and salt and mix until a stiff dough is formed (it was warm out today, so stiff might be a stretch). On a piece of plastic wrap pat the dough into a disk 3/4-inch thick. Cover with another piece of plastic wrap and chill in the freezer for 10-15 minutes. This makes for easy cookie stamping.Use a 1-inch cookie cutter to shape the cookies and place them on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes or until the bottoms of the cookies begin to brown ever so slightly. Dust with powdered sugar.
Makes 1 1/2 dozen small cookies.
Toasting flour:
Put whole wheat flour into a 10-inch skillet over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring often with a whisk, until well toasted. This will take about 10 minutes. Flour should be watched carefully to prevent scorching. Set aside.

Pecan crumbly cookies
by Yolanda Alonso
Slightly different than the Peanut ones...
300g flour
200g butter
150g chopped pecans
75g sugar
Cream the butter, add the sugar and pecans, finally add the flour. Make small balls and press them in the middle. Bake at 150°C and sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.
Yeah, I forgot to write down how long they need to be baked... It's probably the same time as the Peanut ones, 15 to 20 minutes. Sorry -_-;

Crumbly Peanut Cookies
by Yolanda Alonso
(Makes a truckload)
1kg flour
1/2kg shortening
1/2kg sugar (2 cups)
1 jar peanut butter
Preheat oven to 150°C. Mix everything and form small (about the size of a ping-pong ball, maybe a little bit smaller) balls of dough, cover them in sugar and press with your thumb to shape them. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
Make sure you take them off the cookie sheet as soon as they're out of the oven, or you'll have nothing but crumbs!
