Powdered Sugar Cookies, often associated with European and American holiday baking, are delightful treats made with simple ingredients such as butter, flour, sugar, and sometimes vanilla or almond extract. These cookies are typically soft, buttery, and coated in a generous layer of powdered sugar, giving them their signature sweet and snowy appearance. Variations, such as Mexican wedding cookies or Russian tea cakes, include finely chopped nuts for added texture and flavor. While they are a festive indulgence, these cookies are high in refined carbohydrates and sugars, making them better suited for occasional enjoyment rather than regular consumption. They are free of preservatives and artificial additives when made from scratch, offering a wholesome alternative to store-bought treats. For a slightly healthier twist, whole-grain flour or reduced sugar options can be used, though the traditional version remains a classic for celebratory moments.
