Also known as Mexican Wedding Cookies and Russian Tea Cakes, these little vegan snowball cookies are one of my all time favorites, especially around the holidays. They are basically a buttery, rich shortbread cookie ball that is coated in powdered sugar. I mean, what could be better?
Tips & Substitutions
Don’t make the cookies too big. A tablespoon size scoop is just right here. Don’t over or under cook the cookies. They are done when they look set and are lightly golden brown on the bottom. Gluten free? I haven’t tested it myself, but I bet they would work using a gluten free flour mix. Don’t try to sub almond or coconut flour, it just won’t work. Nut free? Feel free to leave out the nuts. You can also swap walnuts for the pecans if desired.
