Sharing festive snowball cookies perfect for any sweet occasion! My White Chocolate Cinnamon Snowball Cookies are simple to prepare and great for celebrating.
This post is sponsored by Disney to celebrate the newest addition to the Disney Cruise Line fleet, the Disney Wish, which sets sail in the summer of 2022. I’ve created a dessert recipe to celebrate the Disney Wish! My White Chocolate Cinnamon Snowball Cookies are inspired by the new Arendelle-themed restaurant aboard the Disney Wish. Arendelle: A Frozen Dining Adventure will be Disney’s first “Frozen”-themed theatrical dining experience that will bring the world of Arendelle to life through immersive live entertainment — featuring favorite characters like Elsa, Anna, Kristoff and Olaf — and world-class cuisine infused with Nordic influences.
What You’ll Need For White Chocolate Cinnamon Snowball Cookies
- salted butter– For most of my recipes I use salted butter, unsalted works fine too.
- dark brown sugar– Dark brown sugar has more molasses added which makes it a darker color.
- granulated sugar– This fine white sugar gives the cookies their sweetness
- large eggs– For consistency, I use large eggs in all of my cooking and baking.
- pure vanilla extract– Use pure vanilla for best tasting results.
- all-purpose flour– Flour is the main dry ingredient in the cookies.
- kosher salt– Kosher salt is a coarse salt commonly used in cooking and baking. I prefer it over table salt.
- baking soda– Baking soda helps the cookies rise during baking.
- white chocolate chips– Find white chips near the chocolate chips.
- ground cinnamon– Cinnamon is added to the top of the cookies for a little spice.
- prepared white frosting– Find prepared frosting in the baking isle of the grocery store next to the cake mixes.
- shredded sweetened coconut– Find shredded coconut in the baking section of the grocery store near the chocolate chips.
- blue sprinkles– Use any sugar sprinkles you’d like.
How To Make Snowball Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and lightly spray a 15 x 10 inch baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Place butter into a large saucepan over medium heat. Swirl to melt and let cook until browned while swirling often. Generally takes 5-8 minutes to brown, watch carefully. Remove browned butter from heat and transfer to a heat proof bowl. Let butter cool for 15 minutes before using in recipe.
- Place warm butter into a large mixing bowl. Add brown sugar and granulated sugar, mixing until well combined. Add eggs and vanilla, beating until smooth and combined. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt until dough forms. Stir in chocolate chips then transfer dough to prepared baking sheet, pressing evenly into bottom of pan. Place granulated sugar and cinnamon into a small bowl, stirring to combine. Sprinkle evenly on top of cookie dough.
- Bake for 22-25 minutes, until baked through and edges turn golden. Let cookies cool completely.
- When cookies are cooled, spread top with white frosting then sprinkle with shredded coconut and blue sprinkles. Cut cookies into squares and serve.

How To Serve Snowball Cookies

How To Store Leftovers
Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container on the counter for up to 3 days. I don’t recommend refrigerating leftovers.
