Method
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a bowl, cream together softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy.
Step 3: Add flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Step 4: Fold in the mini M&Ms gently so they stay whole.
Step 5: Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 tablespoon each).
Step 6: Place dough balls on the baking sheet, spacing slightly apart.
Step 7: Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the bottoms are lightly golden.
Step 8: Let cookies cool for 5 minutes, then roll them in powdered sugar while still warm.
Step 9: After cooling completely, roll the cookies a second time for the perfect snowy finish.

Yes — chill up to 48 hours. 4. Why are my cookies crumbly? Dough may be dry — add 1 tsp milk or butter. 5. Can I make them gluten-free? Yes — use GF flour 1:1. 6. Can I freeze the dough? Yes — freeze dough balls and bake later. 7. Can I make them bigger? Yes — add 2 more minutes of baking. 8. Can I use regular M&Ms? Mini M&Ms work best, but regular ones are fine. 9. Do they spread while baking? Snowball cookies keep their round shape. 10. Can kids help make these? Yes — this is the perfect kid-friendly cookie! 🏁 Conclusion These Irresistible Christmas Snowball Cookies are everything you want in a holiday treat — buttery, tender, snowy, and filled with bursts of colorful chocolate.
