Categories     Desserts     Cookies     Sugar Cookies

Time 3h

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 egg whites
8 cups confectioners' sugar, or as needed
¼ cup lemon juice, or as needed
24 sugar cookies
24 large marshmallows
1 (.75 ounce) tube black decorating gel
1 (.75 ounce) tube orange decorating gel
75 silver nonpareils, or as desired
1 (.75 ounce) tube red decorating gel
1 (.75 ounce) tube green decorating gel

Steps:

  • Beat egg whites lightly in a large bowl using an electric mixer until frothy. Slowly beat enough confectioners' sugar into egg whites to make icing that will hold shape; blend in lemon juice until desired consistency is reached.
  • Arrange cookies about 1-inch apart on a large sheet of waxed paper. Spread icing onto each cookie, allowing icing to drip over edges to look like melting snow.
  • Grease a microwave-safe plate. Place 1 marshmallow onto plate.
  • Microwave marshmallow until it starts to puff up, 20 to 30 seconds. Immediately place marshmallow on the edge of 1 cookie while the icing is still wet to look like a melted snowman. Repeat with remaining marshmallows and iced cookies.
  • Decorate 'melted snowmen' by piping 'twig-like arms' using black decorating gel on the icing. Make 'coal eyes' and a 'mouth' on the marshmallow using black decorating gel. Make a 'carrot nose' under the 'coal eyes' using orange decorating gel. Make 'coat buttons' by arranging silver nonpareils down the middle of the icing. Make 'scarves' or 'bow-ties' using red decorating gel or green decorating gel.
  • Allow cookies to fully dry before removing from waxed paper, at least 1 hour.

Categories     White Chocolate Desserts

Time 1h35m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 5

24 ounces white chocolate almond bark, broken into pieces
1 (16 ounce) package peanut-shaped sandwich cookies (such as Nutter Butter®)
1 jar black and orange candy sprinkles
1 multicolored candy sprinkles
2 (.75 ounce) tubes decorating gel (any color)

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with waxed paper or parchment paper.
  • Melt white chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, 5 to 15 minutes.
  • Insert a fork into the filling of each cookie and dip cookie into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl. Transfer coated cookies to the lined baking sheet.
  • Immediately place 2 black sprinkles onto the top portion of the cookie for the "eyes" and 4 black sprinkles for the "smile" and 1 orange sprinkle for the "nose" while the chocolate is still warm on the cookie. Arrange 3 of the multicolored sprinkles down the center of the cookie for the "buttons". Cool cookies completely.
  • Using the decorating gel, draw a thin line around the "neck" of each snowman creating a scarf. Allow gel to dry.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cookie dough. A soft, chewy cookie dough will work best for snowmen cookies. You can use your favorite sugar cookie dough recipe or a pre-made dough from the store.
  • Chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help the dough to hold its shape better when you cut out the cookies.
  • Use a sharp cookie cutter to cut out the cookies. This will help to create clean, even edges.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature and for the right amount of time. This will help to ensure that the cookies are cooked through but not overbaked.
  • Be creative with your decorations. You can use a variety of edible decorations to create snowmen cookies that are unique and festive.

Conclusion:

Snowmen cookies are a fun and festive way to celebrate the winter season. They are also a great way to get creative with your baking. With a little bit of planning and effort, you can create snowmen cookies that are sure to impress your friends and family.
