Rothenburg Snowballs

The Schneebällchen or snowball is Rothenburg’s best-known culinary speciality. It is made of dough, twisted into shape, then dipped in any one of several different coverings. I found these at the Christmas market in Dresden, a snowball causing about €3. We tasted two of these snowballs, chocolate covered and peanut butter covered. Basically, these snowballs tasted like chocolate covered biscuits, and nothing else. Not really that special in the taste department, but boy…were they huge!
