These melt-in-your-mouth Pecan Snowball Cookies are the perfect sweet treat to share during the holidays and year-round! This 6-ingredient cookie recipe requires no chill time and is baked in less than 30 minutes!
0 Preheat oven to 300°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.
1 Whip the butter and sugar together in a large bowl with a hand mixer at medium speed until creamy. This will take a few moments.
2 Add the vanilla, flour and salt. Mix until just combined.
3 Fold in chopped nuts with a rubber spatula, stirring until just combined. The dough will be very soft.
4 Scoop the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets with a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop. Give the cookies a little space between each one.
5 Bake for 18-19 minutes or until a light golden brown.
6 Let cool for about five minutes.
7 When you can handle with your fingers, roll each warm cookie in extra powdered sugar. I used a fork to help me with this step.
8 Let cool completely before serving and enjoying!
