Cherry Pistachio Snowball Cookies


Notes
Make sure your butter isn't too soft, or your cookies will flatten.
Also, I sometimes I like to refrigerate the cookies on the baking sheets for 15 minutes before baking to ensure that they retain their shape.

Ingredients
2 cups flour
3/4 cup chopped pistachios
1/2 cup chopped maraschino cherries
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup butter softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions
  1. Heat oven to 325 degrees. Combine all ingredients except for powdered sugar in a bowl. Beat ingredients on a slow speed, scraping the bowl as needed. Beat just until well mixed.
  2. Shape dough into 1 inch balls. Place cookies on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until slightly golden. Remove; cool cookies for 5 minutes before rolling in powdered sugar.
