I WONDER IF THESE ARE MEXICAN WEDDING COOKIES

1 cup butter
1/3 cup sugar
2 teasp. water
2 teasp. vanilla
2 cups flour
probably 2 cups pecans chopped very fine

Cream butter and sugar - add water and vanilla. Mix well. Add flour and nuts. Mix well. Chill 4 hours. Shape into TINY balls. Bake 20 at 325* about 20 minutes. Cool slightly. Roll in confectioners sugar. Makes 4 to 5 dozen IF you make them small enough.
The original recipe calls for 1 cup of nuts and says it will make 3 dozen cookies. Bah!!
