My aunt used to make a Christmas cookie that was round and had powdered sugar on the top. Do you know what it might be? I'm having trouble remembering.

Sounds delicious! It could be a Mexican wedding cookie. It's not a common recipe, but it's a Christmas cookie for sure. Have you checked if there's a similar recipe? There's a version called “Bride's Cookies”, made from basic dough and topped with royal icing. Some recipes use cocoa powder, but that's a more complicated recipe and I'd still suggest starting with the Mexican one. Are you going to try making it for Christmas?

I'm thinking about it. I remember it having nuts. Does the Mexican wedding cookie contain nuts?
user
No, it does not. I could probably show you how to make it, if you want? Or look at other recipes? You're probably looking for something similar, but if there's a popular recipe that fits it will be easier to find.

Yes, the "torta de galletas" is a popular Mexican Christmas cookie. You'll need almonds, slivered, along with powdered sugar, powdered sugar, honey, and flour. You could also use sugar and flaked coconut for the filling.
