Snowball Cookies

Italian Snowballs Cookies, also known as Kipfels, are a holiday classic that never goes out of style. Delicate, buttery and generously coated in powdered sugar, they practically melt in your mouth. Made with only five ingredients, finely ground pecans and a few other pantry staples, these cookies are unforgettable.
