This is a great recipe. I added 1 tsp. of vanilla to it and loved it. I haven't tried it without the added vanilla. Thanks so much for a great recipe. I had no idea that you could use a boxed cake mix for cookies... DUH... LOL

Thanks,
Pris

This is a great recipe. I melted the butter and gently toasted the pecans in it then, let it cool before making the cookies. I had five adults and two young teens commenting on how good they were every time they took a cookie from the plate.

They were delicious and simple to make.

I have found the answer to something sweet and quick in my kitchen. I love them. Thanks for sharing.

Best cookie recipe. Very habit forming. Loved it !

Leave it to Cooks.com to save the day. I didn't have pecans, but the cookies were buttery and wonderful. Next time I'll have pecans!

My grandma used to make these and they are my favorite. We add in Heath candy pieces. They make it delicious!

These are the easy way to make Mexican Wedding cookies. Roll the warm cookie in confectioners sugar to make them even better. (Roll them in small balls to put on cookie sheet, not pressed down.)

The batter appears to be too soft to form cookies. It could be due to the water content of the butter. It worked out great for me because living in Colorado, and I must add 1/4 cup of flour. I refrigerate the dough for about 15 minutes to make it easier to form. Plus, I place each uncooked batch back in the refrigerator as I go to keep cookies soft.
