This tea cake looks like a tiny snowball – except this isn’t the kind you’d throw at someone, but the kind you can’t stop eating (seriously, you just can’t!). Hand-tossed in a blizzard of powdered sugar and loaded with deliciously toasted pecans, these buttery cookies are a must-have for cookie platters, holidays events, and enjoying evening tea by the fireplace.
Tip of the Tongue:
The quintessential holiday cookie, but make it small-batch and awfully delicious. Use them to decorate your gingerbread house for a snowscape vibes, or use frosting to stick the bottoms together to make an actual snowball, or definitely leave some out for Santa Claus – that is, if you don’t eat them all first.
