Snowball Cookies #Cookielicious

November 28, 2015 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 23 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today I am joining a virtual cookie exchange with my friends at #SundaySupper.  Today we want to share with you cookie recipes to help  get you through the holiday season.  Can you believe it’s almost Christmas?  I don’t, it’s just pure craziness.  But it’s here and that means cookie season is upon us.  However, every week is cookie season in my house.  You know how I love to bake my cookies every Sunday and now I have an excuse to bake even more.  I can guarantee there will be lots of cookie recipes in the next month.  Today I am sharing with you Snowball Cookies, other known as Wedding Cookies. Yummy!

Snowball Cookies (Aka Wedding Cookies) #Cookielicious

These cookies are light, fluffy and have an amazing almond flavor.  Plus they are super easy to make too. I loved them so much I made a double batch, one for home and one for work.  They are also the perfect cookie to make if you are out of eggs. Yup, no eggs involved in these cookies.

Snowball Cookies (Aka Wedding Cookies) #Cookielicious


The Snowball Cookies are made with ground up almonds, flour, butter and almond and vanilla extract.  I have to say the star of the show is the powdered sugar.  You only need a half cup in the cookie and of course you need more for rolling the baked cookie in.  These cookies kind of remind me of an elegant cookie I would get in Europe.

Snowball Cookies (Aka Wedding Cookies) #Cookielicious

In the recipe, I didn’t have ground up almonds, so I used whole almonds and just ground them in my mini food processor.  Super easy to do.  So don’t worry if you don’t have ground almonds on hand.  By the way, buy your almonds in bulk if you can, so much cheaper buying them this way.

A puffy, round cookie with the flavor of almonds that have been rolled in powdered sugar.
Author: Jennifer Drummond
Recipe type: Cookies
Serves: 36 cookies
Ingredients
  • 2 sticks butter, unsalted, softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ¾ cup ground almonds
  • 2¼ cups all purpose flour
  • 1½ cups powdered sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees
  2. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper
  3. In a large bowl, add butter, sugar, vanilla and almond extracts and salt; beat until well combined. Beat in ground almonds until combined. Beat in all purpose flour until just combined.
  4. Take about a teaspoon size of batter and roll into a ball. Place 1" apart on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, just until bottom starts to lightly brown.
  5. Meanwhile; in a medium bowl, add 1½ cups of powdered sugar.
  6. Take cookies out of the oven and let cool for about a minute. Roll into powdered sugar and place onto cooling rack. Once cookies completely cool, roll for a second time in powdered sugar.
  7. Place in a airtight container.
Notes
You can use almond meal in place of ground almonds. To make ground almonds, just take ¾ cup of whole almonds and process in a mini food processor until ground.

The calories should be less than what I posted. I had plenty of powdered sugar left over when I rolled them. I made two batches and still had left over powdered sugar.

Snowball Cookies (Aka Wedding Cookies)

These cookies would be beautiful, displayed on your counter to share with guests.  Plus the cookies are sturdy enough that they will ship well.   You can store them in an airtight container on your counter.  I don’t think they would freeze well because of the powdered sugar.

I wanted to let you know that we are having a twitter party to discuss our favorite holiday memories, baking tips and more.  It is scheduled for Tuesday, December 1st at 7:00pm (EST).  Just use #Cookielicious.  I would love it if you joined us!

Now time to heat up the oven and bake your favorite holiday cookies.

Toodles,

Jennifer

    These are one of my favorite cookies! They are so dangerous to have around because I want to eat them ALL!

    I agree! These cookies *are* dangerous to have around. Just walking through the kitchen you’d have to “sample” one to make sure everything is Ok and if you just happen to walk through the kitchen two or three times a day well…. 😉

    I can remember making these as a child and with my own children. I guess being from the south, we always used pecans.
    It’s a wonderful recipe! Thanks for sharing your version!!

Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little o Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little outdoor space with our lounge chairs. Truthfully I wanted to get rid of the lounge chairs as they take up so much room and we never lay on the chaises. However, over the winter my husband made new cushions for the them and I didn’t have the heart to get rid of them. He made the cushions for our dog Samantha who passed away this winter. She loved laying on the lounge chairs. The boys don’t like to sit on them, unless you are on them too. 
☀️
I do like the color combination of this space. It’s relaxing and I just love the Gerbera flowers. I wish I could keep the pillows on them, but my little Sully 🐶loves to tear apart pillows. So the pillows are living in my living room. I’ll bring them back outside if we have guests. 
☀️
Have a wonderful day!

Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy the past month or so, and I haven’t really had much to share with you, but this week I am on vacation so hopefully I can get some content to share. 
💙
I am sharing with you one last look of my blues in my living room, as I plan on adding some yellow. I’d like to say with the warmer weather it’s time for Summer decor, but it has been unseasonably cool here. We are still in the 70’s and windy. Great for the plants, but not me. I need some 80’s. This is just wacky weather!
💙
What’s the weather where you live?

My patio area is kind  of an awkward space because we used to have a large pool that we took out a few years ago. We built our space around the pool. So we have lots of odd corners, but it works for us. I really like my backyard.

I went with light cool colors for my backyard space because of the heat and sun. I have always loved the coastal look. I do love to add a pop of color with flowers. Give me all the flowers! 

I hope you check out everyone’s outdoor space. I love this time of year and I can always use more outdoor inspiration.

Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreat Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreations made a gorgeous DIY Tabletop Firepit and I had to run out and got all the pieces to make one of my own. Kelly’s is so gorgeous and fun. Perfect for evenings outside.
🩵
However, when I started to make mine I realized that my dogs are to interested in it, as you can see from the video. I was afraid they would try to get close to the fire and burn themselves. So I came up with another idea, where I could get the same effect without the fire.
🩵
A couple weeks ago my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs shared some solar candles that I thought were pretty, and would be great to use on my table. I’m a sucker for anything solar. 😂 So of course I ordered some. I decided to use the solar candles in my pot in place of the tiki fire. I think it turned out great. I just need to add a few more rocks to it, which I’ll get this weekend.
🩵
Be sure to check out Kelly @farmtotablecreations to see her firepit and also check out how Claire @huntersridge_designs styled her solar candles. Both of there accounts are inspiring.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working outside that I have not worked on decorating my dining room for Mother’s Day or Spring. It’s a bare slate as of right now. So I thought I would share with you last years tablescape that I did for Mother’s Day.
💗
This Mother’s Day,(Saturday) little Jenny is taking me to the @gratoncasino to get a pedicure and possibly lounge at the pool, if it is warm enough outside. Then we will go for a nice lunch. I can’t wait. Sunday, I’ll spend Mother’s Day with the boys. 🐶🐶
💗
Hope you have a fabulous day!!

Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend in between the rain and cold. It was pretty chilly to me. I did get some plants planted and my husband added a new drip line in my big garden. Hopefully my flowers will thrive better this year. 
🌷
On Friday, I watched 3 episodes of Firefly Lane on Netflix. If you like girl type series, I highly recommend. It’s so well written. It’s about best friends growing older together. Unfortunately this is the last of the series. I’ll miss it. I also read that Yellowstone will come back in November and that will be the end of the series. I’ll miss that show. At least I have Virgin River to look forward too. My husband likes Virgin River too.
🌷
Anyway, here is a view of my clean kitchen. I put together this little vignette for Mother’s Day inspiration. I love the Italian Soda from Trader Joe’s, but boy does it give me bad heartburn. I always just drink a little. Actually, anything sparkling, except regular soda, gives me heartburn. So strange. 
🌷
Have a great week!

Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturd Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturday in forever. Today we are getting rain again. Last week it was 90 and sunny and now back to the 60’s, but we are going to hit 90 by next weekend. I can’t wait. I’m over this wacky weather we are having. 
💙
I took down my Easter decor a few weeks ago and went back to using blues and greens in the living room. I think the colors look fresh and clean. Once the weather gets nicer, I’ll start to add in some yellows. I love yellow for the summer.
💙
Next weekend is Mother’s Day. Do you have any plans for the holiday?
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you how I styled @myclaireburke pieces that I received. Let me tell you I love Claire Burke. I have been using there products for more than 25 years.
💗
In my 20’s, I used to go to Macy’s with my mom and in the bedding department they had a section of Claire Burke. I always bought there Original Scent potpourri. It smells like spring flowers with roses and lavender and it’s also beautiful to look at.
💗
If you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift, I highly recommend. I love the Original scent, if you like a floral scent. If you are more for fresh clean scent, the Sea Salt and Grapefruit is amazing. If you like fresh linen I recommend Wild Cotton. I promise they won’t disappoint. Oh and the Electric Fragrance Warmer is also Claire Burke. Works fabulous! 
💗
My Claire Burke ships fast too! They were kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: PBANDP.
💗
Have a beautiful day!!

Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to g Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to get outside and work on my patio space, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy it this week. We are back to winter temps, high winds and rain. They are calling it “May Gray”. Such weird weather this year. 
🌼
I was able to put out my new rug that you all helped me to pick out. I just love the blue. I decided to go with blues and yellows for my outdoor space. I think the yellow brightens up the space. I just need to get more flowers because after all you can never have too many flowers. 
🌼
I wanted to also share with you my new side table from @vicllax_outdoor. I love the white color. It really helps to brighten this space. The table is made of metal, comes in 4 colors and is easy to put together. This table is perfect for a small space too. I couldn’t be happier. 
🌼
Have you setup your patio space yet?

Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather. Sunny, light breeze and in the 70’s. I did a lot of yard clean-up. I just need some dirt and my raised beds will be ready for planting.
🌼
I planned on working on the patio area, but time just went to fast. My husband repaired the trellis that fell over from the wind. We had the Morning Glory on it, but we got rid of it because it is highly toxic to dogs. I ordered a climbing rose from Heirloom Roses that will be delivered next week. 
🌼
I’m sharing with you the Beverage Tub that I bought from Target that I am using as a planter. My husband drilled 1/4” holes 4” apart on the metal insert.  I added a pot to the tub to give the flowers a lift. The handles on the tub are not bendable and I didn’t want to break the flowers and I wanted it to be easier to lift the flowers out, if I decide to change the flowers.
🌼
I love the look! Once I work on the patio area, I’ll move the table and flowers to the patio area. So excited to be working outside. Have a beautiful day!
