Snowball Cookies
A simple, yet delicious cookie for the holiday season! This is my mom's recipe that she's been using for as long as I can remember. It's a family favorite!
Servings 25 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter room temperature
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 3/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
- small bowl of sifted powdered sugar for coating the cookies
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients (except the powdered sugar for coating) until dough forms.
-
Roll into balls and place onto prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes. While warm, roll balls in the bowl of sifted powdered sugar and then repeat when they are a little cooler since the first coat will most likely dissolve. Enjoy, but leave some for Santa ;)
