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 cup butter
½ cup confectioners' sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup chopped pecans
⅓ cup confectioners' sugar for dusting, or as needed
¼ cup finely crushed peppermint candy canes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
