Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup sweetened condensed milk

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup powdered sugar (plus extra for dusting)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts are great options)

1/2 cup shredded coconut (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Cream Butter and Condensed Milk: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sweetened condensed milk until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.

      Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the butter mixture, beating until just combined.

        Add Flavor and Texture: Stir in the vanilla extract, nuts, and shredded coconut (if using) until evenly distributed.

          Shape the Dough: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

            Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the bottoms are lightly golden. The tops should remain pale.

              Cool and Dust: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Once cooled completely, roll the cookies in additional powdered sugar to coat.

                Serve and Enjoy: Serve these delightful snowball cookies at room temperature or store in an airtight container for up to a week.
