NUTTY ORANGE SNOWBALLS
These nutty, buttery cookies will melt in your mouth, leaving just a trace of orange flavor. An old recipe from my mom in North Dakota, they used to be reserved only for weddings and special occasions. But they're great for Christmas because they look just like snowballs! -Judith Weidner, Spearfish, South Dakota
