Butterball Cookies
My family has made these Butterball Cookies for as long as I can remember. We have always called them Butterballs because they are made with….butter! I know there are a lot of other names for them as well but they will always be called Butterball Cookies in our family.
Butterballs are one of many of my traditional Christmas cookies that I bake every year. I make these ahead of time and freeze them. I cover them in powdered sugar immediately from taking them out of the freezer and when they thaw, they are ready to eat.
Below is the link to the step by step directions and a printable recipe card.

These are the best cookie to freeze. I don’t over eat them and it’s so easy to pull a couple out of the freezer. They taste as good as they did fresh.

If you want a cookie that is not super sweet, this is it. Yet by coating them in powdered sugar they will be sweeter. Simple and festive cookie.
