Mexican Wedding Cakes

1 cup butter (must be soft)

3/4 cup powdered sugar
2 cups flour
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup chopped pecans

Mix ingredients and roll by hand into small balls about 3/4 inch diameter
Place on baking sheet
Bake about 30 min. in very slow oven (325 degrees).
Roll in powdered sugar while hot and repeat when cool.
Makes about 3 dozen

Note from Rhea: The dough may not quite hold together. Just warm bowl a few seconds in microwave, then it will. Don't melt butter. Nuts may be omitted.
