Chocolate Chip Snowball Cookies

It’s beginning to look A LOT like Christmas! Are you singing along with me? This is truly one of my favorite times of the year and I’ve been baking and decorating nonstop for the past couple weeks. I have to spread it out a bit so I don’t get my “tinsel in a tangle.” I hope you’ve been blaring the Christmas music and getting ready for this special time as well!

Today I’m sharing some yummy Chocolate Chip Snowball Cookies. They’re filled with little bursts of chocolate, dusted with powdered sugar and they literally melt in your mouth! They’re so simple and come together in no time at all. Absolutely delicious and so festive for this time of year!

I was so excited to participate in The Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap this year and made them for this special occasion. Take a minute to check out what the Cookie Swap is all about and read about the great cause we’re all supporting by participating in this wonderful event. Baking to help make a difference? Yep, I’m in!

If you haven’t already done all of your holiday baking, you’ll need to check out the big round-up posts of all of the bloggers’ cookie recipes from the event. We had so many bloggers participate that they had to split it into two posts! Here’s the 1st one – and here’s the second!  Happy Holidays everyone!

      I think that’s why Ree Drummond is my hero, Andi. She loves butter as much as I do. LOL Thanks for the sweet comments!

    Help! I want to make these before my company gets to town. Am I able to freeze these? And if yes, at what stag should they be frozen, before I cook them or after?

      Hi Holly! Yes, you can freeze these cookies! Freeze them baked, after you roll them in the confectioner’s sugar. They can be kept frozen for up to two months. When you’re ready to eat them, take them out to thaw, roll them once more in confectioner’s sugar and then serve!

    Hi these look delicious. I wanted to bake these and send them overseas, and I’m worried they won’t last! Any thoughts?

      Gosh, it’s so hard to say. I have sent these in the mail, but they have normally arrived at the recipient within a day or two. You could possibly try and wrap them in addition to putting them in a covered container.

        Great thanks for letting me know :). I couldn’t see anywhere how long they last in air tight container. Due to time Id like to make these a few weeks in advance. Do you know how long they last and if they freeze well??

          November 10, 2017 at 9:03 am

          Hi Marissa, the cookies can be frozen for up to 1 month. They may lose a bit of the powdery appearance when thawed but can always be rolled again in powdered sugar to restore the appearance.
