Technically they are both called "Snowballs" in the US. It depends on how small the nut is chopped, whether pecan or walnut is used, and how the ball is rolled and if the ball is rolled after it is cooked, once or twice. Also, the bigger the ball, the flatter the botton because it is heavier cookie. | |

Spelling, added links, added more possibilities for the powdered-sugar-covered balls
