How to cook deliciously - Peppermint Snowball Cookies

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 325°. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment.

2. Stage

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter, salt, peppermint extract, and 1/4 cup powdered sugar until creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add all-purpose flour and almond flour and mix on low speed until well-combined.

3. Stage

Scoop level tablespoons (about 20 grams each) dough and roll into balls (you should get about 20). Arrange 1" apart on prepared sheets. Bake cookies until lightly browned on the bottoms, about 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.

In a small bowl, combine peppermints and 1/4 cup powdered sugar. In another small bowl, place remaining 1/4 cup powdered sugar. Working a few at a time, toss cookies in plain sugar to lightly coat. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Roll cookies in peppermint sugar, then sprinkle tops with more peppermints.
