In this episode of In The Kitchen With Matt, I will show you how to make snowball cookies also known as Russian Tea Cakes or Mexican Wedding Cookies. This easy snowball cookie recipe only requires 6 ingredients. It is kind of like a blend between a sugar cookie and a shortbread cookie, but with nuts on the inside and rolled in powdered sugar. Snowball cookies are popular here in the States around the holidays. They are incredibly simple to make, if I can do it, you can do it. Let's get baking!

00:00 Intro
00:55 Chewy Brownie Cookies
These cookies have the lovely crackled satin surface, and intense chocolate flavour, of a well-made pan of chocolate brownies.
• Information •
Makes 24 cookies
Prep Time: 15 minutes, plus chilling
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Cookies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 5 days.
• Ingredients •
8 oz (240g) dark baking/couverture chocolate, chopped
¼ cup (60 g) unsalted butter, diced
2 large eggs
½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
½ cup (100 g) packed light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup (75 g) all-purpose flour
¼ cup (30 g) Dutch-process cocoa powder
¼ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp fine salt
½ cup (85 g) chocolate chips (white, milk or semisweet)
• Directions •
1. Preheat oven to 375°F and line 2 baking trays with parchment.
2. Melt chocolate and butter in a small metal bowl placed over a pot of simmering water, stirring gently until smooth. Set aside (but the chocolate can be used still warm).
3. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla by hand for a minute, until paler in colour. Whisk in melted chocolate.
4. Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Stir to combine. Stir in chocolate chips. The batter will be fluid, but if you let it rest for a minute or two, it will thicken on its own. Scoop the cookies onto the trays, leaving 2 inches between them.
5. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the cookies appear crackled on the surface. Remove from the oven and cool on trays or cooling racks for 10 minutes.

06:53 Walnut Snowball Cookies
Sometimes called Russian tea cakes or Mexican wedding cookies, these tender, buttery shortbread cookies are shaped in balls and rolled in icing sugar, ensuring a sugary snowstorm with every bite.
• Information •
Makes 48 cookies
Prep Time: 20 minutes, plus chilling
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Cookies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 weeks.
• Ingredients •
1⅔ cups (170 g) untoasted walnut halves
1⅔ cups (250 g) all-purpose flour, divided
½ cup (65 g) icing sugar, plus extra
½ tsp fine salt
1 cup (225 g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tsp vanilla extract
• Directions •
1. Pulse walnuts with flour in a food processor or mini chopper until finely ground.
2. Add icing sugar and salt and pulse again. Add butter and vanilla, and pulse at first to start combining ingredients, then turn to high speed until the dough makes a ball.
3. Portion the cookies. Knead the dough into a ball on a work surface and flatten slightly. Cut into quarters, then divide each into 12 little pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place on a plate or tray. Chill for at least an hour before baking.
4. Preheat oven to 325°F and line 2 large baking trays with parchment. Arrange chilled cookies on trays, leaving an inch between them.
5. Bake for 20 minutes, until just a hint of browning on the bottom of the cookies. Let cool on baking trays or wire rack.
8. After completely cooled, roll cookies generously in icing sugar, using a wide shallow bowl.
---------------
12:16 Almond Streusel Jam Squares
These delicious jam squares use streusel as a sturdy base and as a crumbly topping!
• Information •
Makes one 8-inch square pan (16 to 25 squares)
Prep Time: 15 minutes, plus chilling
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Squares will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for a week.
• Ingredients •
1 ½ cups (180 g) ground almonds
1 cup (150 g) all-purpose flour
2/3 cup (140 g) packed light brown sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
10 Tbsp (150 g) unsalted butter, cool and cut into pieces
1 ½ cups (375 mL) of any fruit jam
Icing sugar
• Directions •
1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Lightly grease and line an 8-inch (20 cm) square pan with parchment so that the paper comes up the sides.
2. Mix streusel ingredients. Combine ground almonds, flour, brown sugar and cinnamon in a mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. If mixing by hand, use a pastry cutter to work in the butter until a fine crumble, or mix on low speed. Add rum or other spirit and continue to mix until the streusel begins to bind and hold in larger clumps.
3. Assemble the square. Spoon two-thirds of the almond streusel into the pan and press into the corners and the base. Spread jam over the base to cover evenly. Crumble remaining streusel overtop, covering jam completely.
4. Bake for about 45 minutes, until streusel is a light golden brown.
5. Cool the square in the pan on a rack completely, then chill for at least 2 hours before dusting with icing sugar and slicing the pan into 16 (4-inch) or 25 (5-inch) squares.

Double Chocolate Snowball Cookies (Russian Tea Cakes/Wedding Cookies)
There are so many things to love about these chocolate snowball treats – these classic Christmas chocolate cookies are perfect for the holidays (or any time of year). You can freeze them, take them to parties, gift them. Or eat them all, I won’t judge. Just make a batch – you won’t regret it!
PRINTABLE RECIPE:
RECIPE:
INGREDIENTS
1 cup unsalted butter softened
½ cup powdered sugar
¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder I used Special Dark, use your favorite
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour measured correctly (spoon and level, do not pack)
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts
Additional powdered sugar for rolling (about 1 – 1 ½ cups)
INSTRUCTIONS
Preaheat oven to 350°. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Mix butter, ½ cup powdered sugar, cocoa, and vanilla with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add flour and salt and mix until the dough comes together. Stir in the chocolate chips. If dough is too soft, chill it until you can work it easily with your hands.
Scoop 1 tablespoon balls of dough and place on prepared cookie sheet.
Bake cookies for 7-10 minutes until bottoms are just slightly brown and the tops are no longer glossy. Remove from oven and cool for 5-10 minutes, until you can handle them. Fill a small bowl with 1 cup powdered sugar and roll each cookie in the sugar until coated. Place on a rack to cool. (Once cookies are cooled, you may want to re-roll them in more powdered sugar.)
