What makes Snowball Cookies so special?

Snowball Cookies, also known as Mexican Wedding Cookies or Russian Tea cakes, are a rich, buttery shortbread cookie. AKA delicious! They are a classic Christmas dessert and our Christmases aren’t complete without them! You can add nuts, if desired, but adding True Lemon really makes the flavor pop. Plus, you can freeze them to enjoy for about a month after Christmas, too.
