Christmas Snowballs


Snowballs
1 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups flour
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1 pkg. Hershey's Kisses (any kind)
Beat sugar, butter and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add flour and nuts; blend well. Chill. Shape dough around kisses using a heaping TBSP of dough for each. Roll to make a ball. Cover kiss completely. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet @ 375 for 12 minutes or until set. Barely light brown on bottom of cookie but NOT brown on tip. Cool slightly and roll in powdered sugar.
I made them with MINT ones today and I'm thinking I'd like to try those candycane ones. This has been a favorite Christmas cookie for years. What is your favorite Christmas cookie, candy or treat? Please share the recipe! Happy Baking!
