I made a large pan of brownies, Rob had one (per usual 😀), so I needed not one, but two kinds of cookie doughs to stuff them in.  These are snowballs – similar to Italian/Mexican wedding cakes or Russian tea cakes.  Very soft cookies because powdered sugar is used instead of granulated sugar.  

A couple of notes : Scoop your flour and powdered sugar into the measuring cup so you get the right amount.   I also chilled my dough overnight to prevent spreading.  Preheat your oven for 20 minutes before baking so it cycles to the right temp.  Do not bake cookies longer than 12 minutes, or else the bottoms will burn.

• Ingredients list
• Batch of brownies, cut into 2 inch squares
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1 tbs butter
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 2 1/4 cups flour
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup mini chocolate chips

Directions – in a bowl, cream butter and  vanilla.  Blend in powdered sugar.  Mix  in flour and salt.  Fold in chips.  Scoop out 2 tbs dough and divide in half.  slightly flatten each half.  Place brownie piece between the halves and seal edges.   Chill a few hours or overnight.  Preheat oven to 375 degrees for 20 minutes.  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  Stagger cookies on sheet.  Bake 10 to 12 minutes (no longer).  Dust warm cookies with powdered sugar.  Cool completely.   Store in covered container.
