Cultural Snack: Russian Tea Cakes

For class we had to sign up for a day to bring a cultural snack to class. I decided that the snack that I was going to bring was Russian Tea Cakes. They were very easy to make and there are very few ingrediants! They came about in the 18th Century and were typically made for special occasions such as Christmas. There are many different variations of this snack in other parts of the world and a lot of people know them as Mexican Wedding Cookies. I have also heard them called Snowballs and Honeyballs as well!!
