3. Let stand on cookie sheet about 2 minutes, then gently roll each one gently in powdered sugar. Let cookies cool. - - Once they cool (15-20 minutes), roll again (gently) in powdered sugar. Store loosely covered.

6. This is good news because anything you can make ahead for the holidays is helpful. I’m sure there is more than one way to freeze these delicate Christmas snowball cookies but here is how I did mine: - - Once they were completely cool and after the second roll in powdered sugar I gently placed them in a freezer bag so they were not touching.
7. I removed as much air as possible from the bag and placed them gently in the freezer. - - To thaw I let them thaw overnight in the refrigerator and then brought them to room temperature. - Then I gently rolled them in - - powdered sugar again to freshen them up. - So there it is. This is how you can freeze your homemade pecan & almond balls. - Recipe by Jenny Jones
