Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup of butter, softened
  • 2/3 cup of powdered sugar, plus extra for coating
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of chopped maraschino cherries
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine your softened butter with powdered sugar. Use a hand mixer to blend until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  • Stir in the vanilla extract, pausing to scrape down the sides of your bowl to ensure everything is evenly mixed.
  • Gradually add your flour and salt to the mix, stirring until you achieve a smooth dough.
  • Gently mix in the chopped maraschino cherries until they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  • Form small dough balls, roughly one tablespoon in size, placing them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes, or until they just begin to brown.
  • While they’re still warm, carefully roll each cookie in additional powdered sugar. Allow them to cool and repeat for a lovely, snowy coating.
