Snowballs II image

These are technically Mexican Wedding Cakes or Russian Teacakes, but my grandmother gave up on us calling them that years ago!

Categories     Desserts     Cookies

Time 45m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup butter
½ cup confectioners' sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped pecans
⅓ cup confectioners' sugar for dusting, or as needed
¼ cup finely crushed peppermint candy canes

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.

SANDY'S SNOWBALLS



Sandy's Snowballs image

When we lived in Kentucky, one of our neighbors brought these tasty, light cookies to a cookie exchange. These are different from the usual snowballs in that there is no sugar in the cookie dough (although the cookies do get coated in powdered sugar after baking). These cookies were one of the big hits of the exchange. Prep time includes 15 minues for mixing up the dough and forming into balls, then another 15 minutes for rolling in the powdered sugar. However, there is also cooling time between the first and second rolling, so allow some extra time for that.

Time 1h

Yield 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup sweet unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sifted cake flour
1 large egg
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup ground pecans
2 -3 cups powdered sugar, more as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 F.
  • Cream butter until smooth and creamy, using an electric mixer.
  • Using a wooden spoon, stir in cake flour,vanilla, egg,& salt until mixed well (using an electric at this point could make the dough too tough).
  • Stir in the ground nuts.
  • Shape into 30 small balls and bake on parchment lined baking sheets at 350 F for 10 minutes (they will appear to be sitting in puddles of melted butter as they bake - this is normal), then rotate your trays in the oven and continue baking another 5-10 minutes, or until they just start to turn golden.
  • Roll in powdered sugar while hot.
  • Let cool.
  • When cool, roll again in more powdered sugar to coat.
  • Store in wax paper lined cookie tins.
