These Almond Joy Snowball Cookies capture the tropical flavors of the candy bar. They are soft, chewy, and rolled in shredded coconut and powdered sugar for a festive, snowy look.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped almonds
  • 1/2 cup shredded sweetened coconut
  • 1 cup powdered sugar, for rolling

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the vanilla extract and the large egg until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Stir in the chopped almonds and shredded coconut.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 9-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Once cooled, place the powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Roll each cookie in the powdered sugar until fully coated.

Notes

  • For a stronger coconut flavor, you can lightly toast the shredded coconut before adding it to the dough.
  • If you prefer a less sweet cookie, you can use unsweetened shredded coconut.
  • These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
