Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 12 round biscuits or cookies (store-bought or homemade)
- 12 large marshmallows
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Decorative Ingredients:
- 2–3 tablespoons milk (for icing)
- Orange gel icing pen
- Black gel icing pen
- Assorted candies (mini M&Ms, sprinkles, or licorice for buttons and scarves)
Instructions
- Craft a smooth, pourable icing by whisking powdered sugar with milk until achieving a silky, fluid texture that cascades gently over the surface.
- Arrange biscuits on a parchment-lined surface, strategically positioning them for optimal decorative potential.
- Gently drape the prepared icing across each biscuit, allowing delicate rivulets to drift elegantly down the edges, mimicking a melting snowman’s fluid motion.
- Warm marshmallows briefly in the microwave to render them pliant, then delicately perch each one atop the iced biscuit as a whimsical snowman head.
- Transform the marshmallow into a character using precise black icing strokes for expressive eyes and a playful mouth, creating personality with minimal details.
- Implement an orange icing accent to craft a charming carrot nose, nestled centrally on the marshmallow surface.
- Embellish the melted design with miniature candies or sprinkles, strategically placing them to represent buttons or a playful scarf element.
- Allow the artistic creation to rest and solidify, permitting the icing to set completely for approximately 20-30 minutes before presenting these delightful winter-themed treats.
Notes
- Control icing consistency by adding milk gradually, ensuring a smooth, pourable texture that creates the perfect “melted” effect without being too runny.
- Soften marshmallows carefully in the microwave for just a few seconds to prevent melting completely, maintaining their shape as the snowman’s head.
- Prepare decorating tools like icing pens and small candies in advance, working quickly before the icing sets to add cute details and personality to each snowman biscuit.
- Experiment with different biscuit bases like shortbread or sugar cookies, and try alternative decorations such as chocolate chips or colored sprinkles to make each snowman unique.
