These almond-scented cookies are delicate and melt in your mouth. The raspberry jam adds a fruity contrast to the buttery base, while the powdered sugar coating gives them that signature “snowball” appearance.
Ingredients
For the Cookies:
1 cup unsalted butter (softened) – The base of the dough, giving the cookies their buttery flavor and crumbly texture.
