Ingredients:

Ingredients Quantity
Unsalted butter, softened 1 cup
Powdered sugar 1/2 cup
Vanilla extract 1 teaspoon
All-purpose flour 2 1/4 cups
Salt 1/4 teaspoon
Finely chopped pecans 1 cup
Additional powdered sugar for rolling As needed

Instructions:

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
  2. Add Pecans: Gently fold in the finely chopped pecans. The dough will be slightly crumbly, but it should hold together when you squeeze it.
  3. Form Dough Balls: Shape the dough into 1-inch balls (or your desired size) and place them on an ungreased baking sheet.
  4. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are set but not browned.
  5. Roll in Powdered Sugar: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool slightly. While they are still warm, roll them in powdered sugar until well coated. Place them on a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. Second Coating: Once the cookies have cooled, roll them in powdered sugar once more for an extra coating. This gives them that “snowball” appearance.
  7. Serve: Your Buttery Pecan Snowball Cookies are ready to enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
  8. Perfect for Every Occasion: These melt-in-your-mouth cookies are a delightful addition to your festive gatherings or whenever you’re in the mood for a sweet and nutty treat. Enjoy!
