Ingredients

Units Scale

Makes about 24 cookies

  • For the cookies:
    • 1 cup (230 g) unsalted butter, softened
    • 1/2 cup (60 g) powdered sugar
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
    • 1/4 cup (25 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
    • 3/4 cup (90 g) finely chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
  • For the coating:
    • 1 cup (120 g) powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. Make the dough:
    • In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
    • Add the vanilla extract and salt, mixing to combine.
    • Gradually mix in the flour, cocoa powder, and chopped nuts (if using) until the dough comes together.
  3. Shape the cookies:
    • Scoop out 1-tablespoon portions of dough and roll into balls. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
  4. Bake the cookies:
    • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set but not browned. Let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes.
  5. Coat the cookies:
    • While the cookies are still slightly warm, roll them in powdered sugar until fully coated. Place them on a wire rack to cool completely.
    • Once cooled, roll them in powdered sugar again for a snowy finish.

Notes

  • Add a teaspoon of instant coffee granules to the dough for a mocha twist.
  • For extra sweetness, drizzle the cooled cookies with melted white chocolate.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
