Ingredients

– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

– 1 cup finely chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– Additional powdered sugar for dusting


Instructions

Making Snowball Cookies is a delightful process. Follow these simple steps to create your own batch:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add Vanilla: Stir in the vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the butter mixture, stirring until just combined.
5. Add Nuts: Fold in the finely chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
6. Shape Cookies: Using your hands, shape the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should remain soft.
8. Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes.
9. Dust with Sugar: While still warm, roll the cookies in powdered sugar to coat them completely. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Final Dusting: Once cooled, roll the cookies in powdered sugar again for an extra snowy finish.
