I was worried my aunts’ baking secret was lost, but I luckily found it and it’s more delicious than ever!

Chocolate chip snowball cookies are a delightful twist on the classic snowball cookie, adding a touch of chocolatey goodness to the traditional buttery, crumbly treat. These cookies have a special place in my heart because they remind me of the first holiday season I spent in the Midwest. The snow was falling outside, and I was in the kitchen trying to recreate the cozy warmth of my childhood home. These cookies are perfect for anyone looking to add a bit of sweetness to their winter gatherings or just to enjoy with a cup of hot cocoa on a chilly day.
These chocolate chip snowball cookies are perfect on their own, but if you’re looking to pair them with something, consider serving them alongside a warm mug of hot chocolate or a spiced chai latte. They also make a lovely addition to a holiday cookie platter, paired with other festive treats like gingerbread cookies or peppermint bark. For a more decadent experience, try serving them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
