Love these my mom always made them too, we called them Russian Tea Cakes and I think they're also called Mexican Wedding cakes. One of my favorites!
My mom calls these butterballs... they are a family favorite... only problem is that I tend to get powdered sugar all over myself as I eat them! ~Ebeth
