White Chocolate Snowball Cookies and a Sweet Appetizer Collection

I like traditional appetizers. And every good part has great appetizers. But sometimes, it’s fun to have sweet appetizers. A little something sweet that can double as an appetizer, finger food, or even a dessert. And remember how your mom told you never to eat dessert before dinner? Sweet appetizers are great for breaking this rule! You know that I like utilizing Foodie.com for recipe collections, and I’d like to thank Foodie.com for sponsoring today’s collection. These 15 Festive Sweet Appetizers would be great for your holiday parties.

White Chocolate Snowball Cookies

 

I’ve been making Snowball Cookies for years, and I always change them up by adding different types of chocolate morsels! Today I’m going with white chocolate.

I’ve tried many recipes for these over the years, but {this one} from Nestle has proven to be tried and true! Simply substitute the recommended morsels with white chocolate chip morsels. The important thing when baking these is to not overbake. To see what the cookies should look like when removing them from the oven, check out the below video tutorial.

 

 

Ingredients:

3 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup powdered sugar
3 sticks unsalted butter, softened
1 tbl. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 c. chopped walnuts
1 small bag of white chocolate chip morsels
Additional powdered sugar for covering finished cookies

Cream together sugar, butter, vanilla extract, and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed. Add flour, one cup at a time, until all combined. Add walnuts and white chocolate chip morsels. Combine completely. Make cookies by scooping up rounded tablespoons of dough and shaping into snowball shaped cookies. Bake at 350 for 8 minutes. Remove from oven when the cookies are light brown. Sift powdered sugar over the cookies. Let them cool. Roll the cookies in the loose powdered sugar when removing them from the pan to cover them completely.
