Ingredients
  

  • 12 round sugar cookies store-bought or homemade
  • 12 large marshmallows
  • 1 cup white icing
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate chips melted
  • 24 mini chocolate chips for eyes
  • 12 orange sprinkles for noses
  • Colored sprinkles for scarves
  • Colored icing for buttons

Instructions
 

Bake the cookies

  • Bake sugar cookies until light golden and soft. Let them cool fully before decorating.

Melt the icing

  • Warm white icing in a microwave for a few seconds until smooth and slightly runny.

Spread icing on cookies

  • Pour a spoon of melted icing on each cookie and let it spread like melted snow.

Melt the marshmallows

  • Warm marshmallows in the microwave for ten seconds until soft but not melted.

Place marshmallows

  • Place one warm marshmallow on each cookie as the snowman’s melting head.

Add eyes

  • Press two mini chocolate chips on the marshmallow to make tiny eyes.

Add the nose

  • Place one orange sprinkle on the marshmallow to make the snowman’s carrot nose.

Draw mouth

  • Use melted chocolate to draw a small smile on each snowman for a cute face.

Add buttons

  • Use colored icing to draw buttons on the melted icing part of each cookie.

Add scarf

  • Use colorful sprinkles or icing to make a scarf around the marshmallow.

Let them set

  • Let the cookies sit for a few minutes so icing can become firm and hold shape.

Check details

  • Check each cookie and fix any missing eyes, noses, or buttons before serving.

Add extra decorations

  • Add more sprinkles around the cookie if you want a snowy effect.

Place on tray

  • Place decorated cookies on a tray lined with parchment paper.

Serve

  • Serve the cookies fresh and enjoy the cute melted snowmen.

Notes

  • Use soft cookies so decorations stick better.
  • Warm icing slightly for smooth spreading.
  • Do not fully melt the marshmallows.
  • Use bright sprinkles for fun colors.
  • Decorate quickly before the icing becomes firm.
