Slow Cooker Snowballs!!!

Step 4: Arrange in the Slow Cooker

Carefully place the coated biscuit pieces in the slow cooker. You can layer them, but don’t overcrowd—leave a little space for the dough to expand as it cooks. Overcrowding may cause uneven cooking.

Step 5: Cook on Low

Set your slow cooker to low heat. Cover and cook for 2–3 hours. Slow cooking ensures the inside of the snowballs becomes soft and fluffy while the outside caramelizes slightly from the sugar.

Tip: Avoid opening the lid too often. Every time you lift the lid, heat escapes, and it can affect cooking time and texture.

Step 6: Prepare the Glaze

While the snowballs cook, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust the milk to get a thick but pourable glaze.

Step 7: Serve

Once cooked, turn off the slow cooker and carefully transfer the snowballs to a serving plate. Drizzle with the prepared glaze while they’re still warm. The glaze adds a sweet, glossy finish that complements the soft cinnamon-coated dough.

Step 8: Optional Enhancements

• Sprinkle toasted coconut or chopped nuts over the glaze for added texture.
• Serve with a side of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert.
• Add mini chocolate chips inside the biscuit dough before cooking for chocolatey snowballs.

Tips for Perfect Slow Cooker Snowballs

1. Use low heat: High heat can overcook the edges before the center is fully done.
2. Check halfway: If your slow cooker runs hot, peek once at the 1.5-hour mark.
3. Fresh biscuits: Canned refrigerated biscuits work best; avoid frozen or dough that’s been sitting too long.

Why These Snowballs Are Special

Unlike baked versions, slow cooker snowballs stay soft and pillowy all the way through. The slow cooking allows the sugar and butter coating to create a slight caramelized texture without becoming hard. Plus, the aroma of cinnamon and warm biscuits fills the kitchen—a cozy treat perfect for cold winter days or holiday gatherings.
