Snowball Cookies
- 1 cup soft butter
- 11/2 tsp. vanilla
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 cups sifted flour
- 1 cup finely chopped nuts
- 1 5 3/4 ounce package of chocolate kisses
- Powdered Sugar
Beat butter, sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add sifted flour and
nuts, blend well.
Chill dough about 1/2 hour.
Remove foil from kisses and shape dough around kisses, using scant tablespoon
of dough for each. Roll to form a ball.
Bake on ungreased cookie sheet at 375 degrees for 12 minutes until set but not
brown While still warm roll in powdered sugar. Cool and store in a tightly
covered container.
Roll in sugar again before serving if desired.
having had to make 300 snowball cookies this past spring for my daughters
wedding, the easiest way to get the snow on the cookies is to take a shallow
baking dish and put about an inch of powdered sugar in the dish. then use a
flour sifter and sift the powdered sugar over the hot cookies and let them sit
for a bit in the sugar before moving them to a wire rack to cool. the kisses in
the middle work best if u freeze them for a few hours after unwrapping them,
and then take them out just prior to wrapping the dough around them.
they won't melt out of the cookie dough so easily
