Mini Chocolate Chip Snowballs

Another new addition to our recipe box, also from allrecipes.com: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Mini-Chip-Snowball-Cookies/Detail.aspx

Instead of the mini morsels we used dairy-free chocolate chips. Still yummy! :-)

INGREDIENTS

• 1 1/2 cups butter or margarine, softened
• 3/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 (12 ounce) package NESTLE® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate Mini Morsels
• 1/2 cup finely chopped nuts
• Powdered sugar

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Beat butter, sugar, vanilla extract and salt in large mixer bowl until creamy. Gradually beat in flour; stir in morsels and nuts. Shape level tablespoons of dough into 1 1/4-inch balls. Place on ungreased baking sheets.
3. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until cookies are set and lightly browned. Remove from oven. Sift powdered sugar over hot cookies on baking sheets. Cool on baking sheets for 10 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely. Sprinkle with additional powdered sugar if desired. Store in airtight containers.
