Ingredients You’ll Need
- Sugar cookies (homemade or store-bought)
- White royal icing
- Large marshmallows
- Mini chocolate chips (for eyes)
- Orange sprinkles or candy for noses
- Gel icing for arms and melted snow outlines
How to Make Melted Snowman Cookies
- Bake the Cookies: If you’re using homemade sugar cookies, bake them until golden brown and allow them to cool. Otherwise, place your store-bought cookies on a tray, ready for decorating.
- Frost the Base: Spread a layer of white royal icing over each cookie. This will act as the “snow” for your melted snowmen.
- Melt the Snowman: Place a marshmallow on top of each cookie while the icing is still wet, pressing gently so it sticks. For an extra-melted look, you can even microwave the marshmallows for a few seconds first.
- Add the Face and Details: Use mini chocolate chips for eyes, orange sprinkles for noses, and black gel icing for arms to give each snowman its own personality.
- Decorate and Serve: Let the cookies set, and then enjoy!
These cookies will be the talk of the holiday season and make fantastic gifts, too. They’re easy enough for beginner bakers but cute enough to impress everyone who sees them!
