These walnut snowballs actually have less powdered sugar than I usually put on them. I got kind of busy pulling things in and out of the oven and missed a crucial step, which I will now emphasize to you: dredging the snowballs in the bowl of powdered sugar immediately after they come out of the oven. The powdered sugar you dust over them later sticks better to a good initial coating of dredged powdered sugar, and the initial dredging sticks better if the cookies are still a little steamy from the oven. (Since they have so much butter in them they end up a very crisp cookie with an almost-non-existant moisture content once they cool.) These one still tasted good, though!
