Best Santas Snow Balls Cookies Recipes
SNOWBALLS II
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.

HOLIDAY SNOWBALL COOKIES
Mom made these for Christmas every year, as long as I can recall. She also made them for hundreds of weddings! She would let us (the kids) do the sugaring at the end. I tweaked my mom's recipe by using some fat-free items and also adding the milk and sour cream. The original version was a harder cookie. This will make a softer one. These can be stored in an airtight container and refrigerated.

SANTAS SNOW BALLS.. (COOKIES)
I love my Bath Tub Santa, and these cookies.! They are very simular to a Russian Tea Cake or a Mexican Wedding Cookie. My recipe uses whole wheat flour, and almond flavoring. This gives them an wonderful different taste. Maybe the use of anise extract would an be a nice flavor change also. I am sure Santa would approve. When you wind santa up ,his arm goes up and down, like he is scrubbing himself!...LOL nancy...12/15/12

I think there is a little bit more flavor with the old time oats.THey are not ground up like the instant oats are.
- Make balls of dough about 1 inch round and place on a ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in a pre-heated 350F oven ..for about 20 minutes.
- While warm ...roll in powdered sugar. Put cookies on a rack to cool. Then roll again in powdered sugar . Makes about 3 dozen. Enjoy....I know SANTA does! His cookie plate is always empty!!
CHRISTMAS SNOWBALL COOKIES
Most people refer to these delicious cookies as Mexican Wedding Cakes. Since my children were young, we have always refered to them as Christmas Snowballs because they look just like snowballs covered in powdered sugar!
