How To Make Buttery Pecan Snowball Cookies:
Step 1: Prep & Cream: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, blend the softened butter and ½ cup of powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth.
Step 2: Mix in Dry Ingredients: Mix in the flour, salt, vanilla extract, and finely chopped pecans until everything is well blended and forms a dough.
Step 3: Shape & Bake: Form the dough into 36 small balls and place them on a parchment-lined or well-greased baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes.
Step 4: Cool & Coat: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool to room temperature on the baking sheet. Once cooled, add the remaining 1 cup of powdered sugar to a bowl and gently toss the cookies in it to coat them completely before serving.
