Como fazer Mexi Tea Cakes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in ½ cup chopped pecans.
- Cover the bowl and chill the dough for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Roll the dough into 36 small balls (about 1 inch in diameter).
- Unwrap 36 chocolate kisses and place one kiss in the center of each dough ball. Wrap the dough around the kiss, completely enclosing it.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each.
- Bake for 11-14 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft.
- While the cakes are baking, prepare the coating: In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, and ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Once the cakes are baked, let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before gently rolling each one in the powdered sugar mixture to coat.
- Place the coated cakes on a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
