These festive cookies make an appearance on my giant Christmas cookie platters every year. The simple buttery flavor is a nice change of pace from all of the rich fudge (btw – best 5 Minute Mint Chocolate Fudge right here!), and chocolate covered goodies like these 4 Ingredient Coconut Cream Bars. Plus, everyone loves them!

You may recognize these as Mexican wedding cookies, Italian wedding cookies, Russian teacakes, or Snowballs. I have always called them snowballs.

Usually I make them with finely chopped almonds or pecans, but this time they got a Christmasy splash of color from some red and green sprinkles! My kids were quite pleased with this little twist!

I have received countless requests for wedding cookies over the past year, but there’s no better time than December for cookies, right? So this recipe is for all of you who have been patiently waiting for my version of this classic cookie.

Should you decide to forgo the sprinkles, you can substitute 1/4 –  1/3 cup of your favorite chopped nuts (I usually use almonds or pecans). Or you can leave them out altogether! Either way, I’m sure they will become a favorite.
