Ingredients
1 cup softened butter
1 can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup confectioner’s sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
Cream the Butter: Begin by creaming the softened butter in a large mixing bowl until it’s smooth and fluffy.
Incorporate Sweetened Condensed Milk: Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk to the creamed butter, mixing until the two ingredients are well combined.
Prepare the Dough: Sift in the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Mix until you form a soft, cohesive dough.
Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Form the Cookies: Scoop small amounts of dough and roll them into balls. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake: Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until they are slightly golden around the edges.
Dust with Sugar: Allow the cookies to cool slightly before dusting them with confectioner’s sugar for a sweet finish.
Notes
These snowball cookies can be enjoyed warm right out of the oven or at room temperature. Their soft and tender texture makes them a delightful treat either way.
Serve these cookies with a hot beverage such as coffee, tea, or hot chocolate to enhance the cozy, comforting experience.
For an elegant touch, arrange the cookies on a festive plate and dust them with a bit of extra confectioner’s sugar before serving. You can also add some holiday-themed decorations for a festive presentation.
