SNOWBALL SURPRISE



Snowball Surprise image

At Christmastime when all the treats tend to be super sweet, it's nice to have a lightly sweet cookie. We love snowballs with their buttery shortbread, pecan flavor and a dusting of powdered sugar. Putting chocolate chunks in the center is a sweet surprise. We're pretty sure Santa (plus your family and friends) will love these.

1 Tbsp water
1 tsp vanilla
2 c all-purpose flour; sifted
1/2-1 c pecans; finely chopped, opt
1 pkg chocolate chunks
1 c powdered sugar for coating

Steps:

  • 1. Cream softened butter. Add 1/2 c powdered sugar. Beat until combined; scraping bowl.
  • 2. Beat in water and vanilla.
  • 3. Beat in as much flour as you can.

Tips:

  • Use a large bowl to mix the ingredients. This will help to ensure that everything is evenly combined.
  • Be sure to chill the dough before shaping the cookies. This will help to prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • If you don't have a cookie scoop, you can use a tablespoon to measure out the dough. Just be sure to pack the dough tightly into the spoon before scooping it out.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before rolling them in powdered sugar. This will help to prevent the sugar from melting.
