This sweet & zesty Lemon Snowball Cookie recipe is a favorite in our family. When you think about lemons I think we all think sour. But these snowballs are just the right combination of sweetness and tang. If you decide to do a “snowball” platter you will want to include these recipes also:
Fail-proof Pumpkin Spiced Snowball Cookies Recipe and Christmas Kiss Surprise Snowball Recipe. It doesn’t have to be the holidays to make these delicious treats.
