The last of my recipes this week around snow is the Snowball Crunch.  It’s another simple recipe that you can do with the kids when they have a snow day from school.  Big thanks to Aunt Barb for the great recipes!

Ingredients:

1 c. softened butter
1 Tbsp. vanilla
1/4 c. sugar
1/4. powdered sugar
1 c. chopped pecans (or not, I don’t care for nuts in sweets)
2 c. sifted flour

Preheat oven to 300.  Mix butter, vanilla, and sugar until creamy.  Add nuts and flour.  Pinch off dough and roll into ping pong ball-sized snowballs.  Bake for 35 minutes until golden brown.  While still warm, roll in powdered sugar.  Begin ‘throwing’ them in your mouth!
