Snowball Cookies

These Snowball Cookies transport me back to my childhood. They definitely rank in the top 5 favorite cookies for me, which is saying a lot because I seem to make cookies every other day. These are soft, buttery, and they melt in your mouth.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  2. Add the butter, flour, pecans, and granulated sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on low speed until well combined. Scrape the bowl as needed.
  3. Roll the dough into 1 inch balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. The dough will be very crumbly but should come together in your hands as you roll.
  4. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until lightly browned.
  5. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes and then roll in the powdered sugar.
  6. Store tightly covered for up to 5 days.

Notes

  • The dough will be fairly crumbly after mixing, but the warmth and pressure of your hands will help shape it into a ball.
  • For a less sweet version, roll these in powdered sugar once. For more coverage, roll them in powdered sugar a second time about 5 minutes after the first coating.
