GF Almond Snowball Cookies

This is a recipe from our 2014 Tastefully Simple Cookie Workshop.  Actually, I modified it to be gluten-free.

Ingredients:

GF Vanilla Bean Pound Cake Mix
1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter
1 egg
2 oz pkg chopped pecans
powdered sugar

Directions:

Combine first four ingredients in a large mixing bowl.  roll into 1 inch balls.  Place on press-n-seal paper.  Cover with another press-n-seal.  Seal and freeze.

Place balls 2 inches apart on greased or parchment lined baking sheet.  Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until slightly browned.  Cool slightly.  roll in powdered sugar until well-coated.  Cool on rack.

Makes 24-26 cookies.

The original recipe used Absolutely Almond Pound  Cake Mix.

This was a big hit with our family on Thanksgiving day.
