Mexican Wedding Cookies

1 cup butter, soft
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla

Combine and add:

1 3/4 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup finely chopped pecans

Roll into balls (less than 1 inch)  Bake on ungreased cookie sheet, bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes.  (they don't need to brown, just need to set up)

Let cool a little while then roll in powdered sugar.  Let cool completely and roll in powdered sugar again.

Chicken and Noodles

This recipe is from my Aunt Dorothy...she would make this at Thanksgiving and Christmas! So good and actually very easy to make.

Homemade Noodles

Beat:  3 eggs (whip till fluffy)
          1/4 cup milk
          1/8 tsp baking powder
           1 tbsp. corn oil

Add 2 cups flour while beating till thick.  Knead on floured surface.  Roll into a circle.  Roll up like cinnamon rolls and slice.  Unroll and put on a cookie sheet.  Let dry for 1 hour.

Boil 2-3 chicken breasts - shred chicken.

In a large pot, add

1 large can chicken broth
1 family size can of chicken noodle soup
1 family size can of cream of chicken soup
2 chicken bouillon cubes

Add in chicken and drop in noodles.  Bring to a boil then simmer on med-low (stirring frequently making sure they don't stick to bottom of pan.) 

Taste and season with salt/pepper.



I sometimes add more of the chicken broth/soup...I just eyeball it and add more as needed.
