Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a 3/4 size cookie sheet or 2 regular cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment, cream together 1/2 lb butter, 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 1 tsp vanilla, until smooth.
- Switch to paddle attachment and gradually mix in 2 cups all purpose flour and 1/2 tsp salt. Once incorporated, add 1 cup almond meal and 1/2 Tbsp orange zest and mix until well blended. The dough will stick slightly to the spatula but not to finger tips. If very sticky, add 1-2 Tbsp more flour.
- Shape dough into 1-inch balls (a small ice cream scoop makes it easy and exact). Place them on prepared baking sheet 1 inch apart. You should get 38-40 cookies. Don't make them too large or they won't bake through properly. Bake 11-13 min, or until bottoms are golden and edges are barely golden (I bake 11 min for softer cookies). Remove from baking sheet and cool 5 min.
- Fill a bowl with powdered sugar and roll the cookies in it while they are still warm (not hot). Transfer cookies to wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cookies are at room temp, roll in powdered sugar again or dust the tops with a mini sieve for a snowy look.

ALMOND SNOWBALLS
These Christmas cookies are so pretty, with a sweet almond paste surprise in the center, topped with a tasty almond glaze and a sparkling coating of edible glitter or coarse sugar crystals. They look like they take forever to make, but only you need to know how easy they are! Yield is approximate - these cookie recipes come out differently every time (so it seems to me...).

TOASTED ALMOND SNOWBALLS
Browning almond flour for these cookies adds a deep layer of toasty flavor, intensifying their overall nuttiness. Feel free to substitute other nuts: Pistachios, walnuts and pecans work particularly well. Snowballs keep, stored airtight at room temperature, for about a week.

Steps:
- In a medium skillet over medium heat, toast the almond flour, stirring constantly, until golden brown and fragrant, 6 to 8 minutes. Immediately pour flour into a small bowl to cool. Watch carefully: Once the flour begins to toast, it will happen very quickly.
- Using an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or a handheld electric mixer, beat butter and 1 cup confectioners' sugar on low speed until fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Beat in egg yolk, brandy and almond extract until well combined.
- Reduce speed to low and gradually add all-purpose flour, salt and toasted almond flour until just incorporated.
- Scrape the dough into an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- When ready to bake, heat oven to 350 degrees and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Using your hands, roll dough into 1-inch balls and place balls 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 12 to 18 minutes, until cookies begin to brown at edges. Rotate cookie sheets halfway through for even baking.
- Place 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar into a sieve. As soon as the cookies come out of the oven, sift a thick layer of confectioners' sugar over the tops. Once cookies are cool, put remaining 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar (plus any sugar in the sieve) into a shallow bowl and toss cookies again in confectioners' sugar.

CHERRY ALMOND SNOWBALLS
In my opinion, the best kind of dessert are the ones you don't have to wait countless hours to enjoy. Even though I like the anticipation of having something in the oven and getting the house filled with sweet aromas, sometimes I'm just too impatient! Today's recipe, almond snowballs, has come to my rescue many many times.I can be impatient when it comes to desserts and sweets. But sometimes you don't have the time or you just simply don't have an oven at home. For all these cases, almond snowballs can be a great option. You can get a fix for your sweet tooth or make a fun dessert to share with your loved ones. Almond snowballs are fun and easy to make. They only take about 15 minutes to be ready from the moment you start to the moment you can stuff your face with one, or two or as many as you'd like. I do recommend to let them sit in the fridge for a little while before you serve them. Almond snowballs are delicious either way, but I reckon they taste better when you allow them to chill.There are many almond snowball recipes out in the vastness of the internet. So to make these ones special I added dried cherries. It's a small addition but it's a little pop of flavour you'll find while you chomping through them. It makes a whole lot of difference. Also, I wanted to make a gluten-free dessert. We are using almond flour and other gluten-free ingredients to make this recipe, so it's 100% gluten-free. I did use refined sugar to turn this dessert from plain almond balls into actual almond snowballs. It's rare for me to use refined sugar in any of my recipes. But hey, it's the holidays, time to splurge a little bit, even in the kitchen. I figured this recipe could be great as a Christmas treat or to give away as a little something for friends and family. This is one of those recipes to keep handy that might get you out of a lot of troubles. Since it's really fast to make, you can take it with you to last-minute invitations. Or, if the craziness of the holidays is getting to you, and you forgot you were supposed to bring the dessert to your work's holiday party! Also, since they are pretty much individual servings you can just put them on the table and forget about the cutting, slicing and passing around part. Everyone can just grab an almond snowball whenever they please. This year, I'm making little almond snowball baskets as gifts for my son's teachers and some other friends. I think it is better to give away something you've made and put your heart into than just buying something at the store. Also, my son says this is the best recipe I have ever made! Haha! So, if it's approved by him, I can give them away with no hesitation.

The balls taste best if you serve them chilled, enjoy!

- Add all of your ingredients to a food processor or high speed blender. Blitz until you have a dough.
- Place the dough on a tray or plate on top of some baking or parchment paper and pop in the freezer for 10 minutes. This step is not 100 % necessary but I find it makes it easier to make smooth, even, balls - particularly if the weather is hot - like it is here at the moment!If the climate you are in is hot the dough can become a little sticky and hard to roll.
- Remove the dough from the freezer. Roll into balls then roll the balls into another layer of desiccated coconut.
