How to Make Coconut Snowflake Cookies

  1. In a medium bowl, cream together 1 cup peanut butter, ½ cup (1 stick) softened butter, and 2 cups powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
  2. Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts and 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal until evenly combined.
  3. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  4. While the balls chill, prepare the frosting: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, 2-4 tablespoons milk (add more for desired consistency), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  5. Once the balls are firm, roll each ball in the frosting, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, roll the frosted balls in sweetened shredded coconut until completely covered.
  6. Place the finished Coconut Snowflake Cookies back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for another 15-20 minutes to allow the frosting to set.
