My All Time Favorite Holiday Cookies

Happy Holidays, everyone! This is one of the best times of the year, mainly because of all the yummy food that’s around, so I thought I would share the recipe for one of my favorite holiday cookies that I am obsessed with. I guess these are technically just Russian tea cakes, but they look like snowballs, which makes them extra festive for this season. My mom and I make these every year and they are always a hit, but be careful because you can easily down like 15 of these without even realizing. Enjoy <3
