INSTRUCTIONS
Snowballs are supposed to be made with ground nuts, but since Egoz (nut)
and Cheit (sin) have the same numerical value, it's a custom not to eat
nuts on Rosh Hashanah ( I didn't know this either until I was given the
recipe). So here is the Rosh Hashanah variation.
Mix all ingredients and refrigerate for 1 hour (let harden). Roll into
balls of desired size (1-1/2 inch diameter recommended). Place on Cookie
sheet.
Bake 350 degrees Farenheit for 20 minutes. Let cool, then freeze. Before
eating, coat thuroughly with confectioners sugar.
Tip: To coat, use a food-storage bag half filled with confecioners sugar
and some Snowballs and shake.
