Snowball Cookies

Snowball Cookies

EverydaySweetened

Snowball cookies are a buttery shortbread confection characterized by their round shape and powdered sugar coating, earning them names like Russian tea cakes or Mexican wedding cookies. These crumbly, nut-filled treats traditionally incorporate finely chopped pecans or walnuts into their dough and gain their signature snowy appearance from being rolled in powdered sugar while still warm. While naturally gluten-free when made with alternative flours, their rich butter and nut content makes them energy-dense, with each cookie typically containing significant fat calories balanced by modest protein from nuts.
