Melting Snowman Cookies

I feel like now that we are at least past Halloween I can start posting some holiday treats.  It just doesn't feel right to do it before then.

I made these last year and they were an absolute hit, and SO stinkin easy.

What you'll need:


Sugar cookie dough (you can make it, or buy it)
Marshmallows
Sugar cookie frosting (make or buy, I bought mine because this was a school night project)
Decorator icing in different colors, you need black and orange for sure.



So, bake your cookies according to the directions, but make them a little misshapen when you put them on the pan.


After they have cooled, put your frosting on, making it drizzle down the edge a bit like it is snow melting.


Pop your marshmallows on a plate and microwave them for like 2-3 seconds.  You just need to be able to mash them a tiny bit so they don't need long.


Affix them to the top of the cookie, using your icing as glue.


Then, decorate with faces, scarves and hands!
