Creating Snowball Cookies is a delightful process. Follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and ½ cup of powdered sugar until fluffy.
3. Add Vanilla: Mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add this to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
5. Incorporate Nuts: Fold in the finely chopped nuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
6. Shape the Cookies: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the bottoms are lightly golden.
8. Cool and Dust: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes. After cooling, roll them in powdered sugar while they are still warm.
9. Final Dusting: Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack, then dust with more powdered sugar before serving.

These steps will guide you in creating these incredible cookies effortlessly.
