Pixie Magic Confetti Snowballs Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Beat butter, sugar and vanilla in large bowl until well blended. Gradually blend in flour. (Mixture will be crumbly, but will hold a shape if squeezed.)
• Stir in candies. Shape mixture into 1-inch balls.
• Place on ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set but not browned.
• Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack.
• While still slightly warm, roll in powdered sugar.
• Cool completely.
• Store in tightly covered container. Roll again in powdered sugar just before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 160°C ( 325°F ).
• Process ground almons in a food processor until a paste forms. This shoud take a couple of minutes. Use shorter bursts on the processor until completed.
• Add icing sugar and eggwhite and process until combined and smooth consistency.
• Roll 2 teaspoons of mixture at a time into balls. Then roll each ball into sifted icing sugar to coat thickly. (I make mine on the small side- will fit into a chocolate paper/foil wrapper after being cooked. You can make larger ones if you wish).
• Place on baking trays lined with baking paper and bake for 10 minutes. They will puff up as they cook.
• Cool on trays and then store in airtight containers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cream the butter with 1/2 cup of the confectioners' sugar and the vanilla. Mix in the flour, pecans, and salt. Roll about 1 tablespoon or so of dough into balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until bottoms are golden, about 15 minutes. Do not allow these cookies to get too brown: it's better to undercook them than to overcook them. While cookies are still hot, roll them in confectioners' sugar. Once they have cooled, roll them in confectioners' sugar once more.

Steps:

• After melting the butter, mix in all ingredients.
• Roll into small balls then in coconut.
• Keep in fridge, let set for a while.
• • Or you could try leaving out the cocoa and put in 1/2 cup dried apricots and 1/2 cup sultanas.
