and combine with the hand mixer on low. Add the ground almonds, walnuts or other nuts. A soft dough will form.

I use a Mellon baller scoop to get the round balls onto the cookie sheet. These do not spread so you can pack them in tightly without worry.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Place in a bag with powdered sugar and coat each one.
Remove from powdered sugar to serving plate and eat. 😋

Note: The Mexican Wedding cookies I had growing up were also called "Rum Balls" due to the nuts being soaked in rum....fyi, they had a kick! Now, with kiddos, I leave out alcohol.
