These cookies are called wedding cookies because, in Mexico, some people serve these only. There is no cake, these are the finger food desserts for the guests. It is quite traditional and in my opinion, such a pretty dessert to serve guests at a wedding. Now, I don’t know if I would have been satisfied with just cookies at my wedding because I did have a pretty extravagant cake, however, these cookies would make a wonderful addition to the dessert table.
