These melt-in-your-mouth cookies are rolled in powdered sugar, delivering a rich blend of buttery sweetness that everyone will love.

Ingredients

  • 1 cupsoftened butter (room temperature for easy mixing.)
  • 1 cansweetened condensed milk (approximately 14 ounces.)
  • 2 cupsall-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoonbaking powder
  • 1 cupconfectioner’s sugar (for dusting.)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

  2. 2

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until light and fluffy—about 2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Pour in the sweetened condensed milk and mix until the two are fully combined. This mixture should look creamy and smooth.

  4. 4

    Sift in the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Stir gently with a spatula or slow electric mixer until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix; you want the cookies to stay tender.

  5. 5

    Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.

  6. 6

    Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the bottoms are just turning golden but the tops remain pale—do not overbake!

  7. 7

    Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet, then roll each one in confectioner’s sugar while they’re still slightly warm to ensure the sugar sticks.

  8. 8

    For a classic snowball effect, roll the cookies in sugar a second time once they have cooled completely.
