MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH SNOWBALL COOKIES RECIPES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add the egg, milk and vanilla; mix well. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt and baking soda; gradually add to creamed mixture. Cover and refrigerate overnight. , Shape into 1-in. balls; place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350° until tops are crackled, 7-8 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Roll in confectioners' sugar.

Steps:

• Using a stand mixer, hand mixer or a fork in a large bowl, cream together the butter (ghee OR coconut oil) with powdered sweetener until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla, almond flour and salt and mix until the dough forms a ball. Stir in chopped pecans and mix again until combined. Use your hands to knead the dough until it forms a large dough ball. Add milk only if dough seems dry and does not come together - and alternatively add more almond flour if the dough seems too wet - only a little bit at a time.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll dough into ONE (1) tablespoon sized dough balls. Place on prepared cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Repeat until all the dough is used up. Place baking sheet in freezer for 15 minutes (to avoid spreading). Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 F.
• Bake cookies for 12-14  minutes until bottoms are golden - rotating pans halfway through. Be careful not to over-bake.
• Remove from oven and cool on baking pan for about 3-4 minutes until you can handle them comfortably with your hands.
• Meanwhile, sift 1/2 cup powdered sweetener into a medium bowl. While cookies are still warm, roll them in powdered sweetener. Place cookies on a cooling rack. Once the cookies have cooled completely, you can roll them in powdered sweetener again for an extra layer, if desired.
• Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to one month.
