Dirty Snowballs Recipes

DIRTY SNOWBALLS

Steps:

• Melt chocolate in double boiler or microwave. Combine melted chocolate, granulated sugar, vanilla and vegetable oil in a mixer. Add eggs, one at a time, blending well each time. Sift (or stir) together flour and baking powder, add to wet mixture. Mix well. Let stand in refrigerator for a few hours or overnight. Roll dough into small balls (no more than about 1 inch in diameter), and roll in powdered sugar until coated. Bake for 12 minutes in a preheated 350 degree F oven.

DIRTY SNOWBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Using a mixer, combine the cold butter and ¾ cup powdered sugar.
• Add eggs and almond liqueur or vanilla, mixing to combine.
• Add the flour, then the almond flour, then the pecans and salt a little at a time so that it doesn't create a cloud of flour. Mix well to combine. Refrigerate your dough for about an hour.
• Using a small cookie scoop or a measuring tablespoon scoop the cold dough and roll into a ball, place onto the lined cookie sheet.
• Bake for approximately 10-14 minutes, depending on how large your snowballs are. They will still be somewhat soft to the touch (but not doughy) and will not be browned on top at all when they are done. The bottom may be lightly browned. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the cookie sheet.
• Once they cookies are completely cool, put 1 cup of powdered sugar in a bowl and roll the cookies in the sugar to coat them evenly. Then they are ready to devour!

DIRTY SNOWBALL COOKIES

Steps:

• Stir cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Crumble cookies over cream cheese and mix using your hands. Form mixture into balls, arrange on a baking sheet, and insert a toothpick into each ball. Refrigerate until solid, at least 2 hours. Or freeze, 15 to 30 minutes.
• Melt almond bark in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each melting, for 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave). Dip cookie balls in the melted bark and place on waxed paper to cool.

DIRTY SNOWBALLS

Steps:

• Combine cream cheese and cookie crumbs. I use my hands for this. Mess, but easier than trying to use a spoon.
• Let mixture cool in the fridge for 30 minutes.
• Roll mixture into bite size balls and freeze for one hour.
• Melt almond bark in a double boiler.
• Dip frozen balls into almond bark and place on wax paper lined cookie sheet. Freeze until bark is hardened.

SNOWBALLS II

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cream the butter with 1/2 cup of the confectioners' sugar and the vanilla. Mix in the flour, pecans, and salt. Roll about 1 tablespoon or so of dough into balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until bottoms are golden, about 15 minutes. Do not allow these cookies to get too brown: it's better to undercook them than to overcook them. While cookies are still hot, roll them in confectioners' sugar. Once they have cooled, roll them in confectioners' sugar once more.
