Make the Dough: Combine the flour, lard, white wine, powdered sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix well until a smooth dough forms. The dough should be soft but not sticky.Snacks
Chill the Dough: Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This will make it easier to handle when shaping the cookies.

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Shape and Bake: Take the chilled dough out of the refrigerator. Roll small portions of dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 1 inch apart. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden brown on the bottom but still pale on top.
Roll in Powdered Sugar: While the cookies are still warm, roll them generously in extra powdered sugar to coat them completely. Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack. For a thicker powdered sugar coating, you can roll them in sugar again after they cool.
Serve: Enjoy these snowball cookies with a cup of tea or coffee!
