My gripe with adorable Christmas cookies is that they never taste good! So I sought to make adorable snowmen that were actually delicious!
INGREDIENTS:
1 Box red velvet cupcake mix (I used Duncan Hines)
2 eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
cream cheese frosting (homemade recipe on blog, or buy pre-made)
black and red icing
Marshmallows
Rollos or reeces bells for hats (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Combine one the box of Duncan Hines Red Velvet cake mix, eggs and and vegetable oil. Whisk.
Form teaspoon size balls and place on a lightly greased cookie sheet or baking pan about one inch apart. Slightly pat down the top of each ball with the backside of a spoon or spatula.
Cook for 8 minutes. Remove and let cool completely
frost with cream cheese frosting and stick a marshmallow into the frosting. Decorate with colored icing to create a scarf, buttons, arms, eyes and nose.
frost the top of the marshmallow and add the rolo or reeces bell (if desired)
I only did a few with the hats -- mostly because I was really going for delicious on this one and I thought the hat was candy overkill. But it's a matter of preference - if your guests have the sweetest of tooths put the hats on!
I also made some smiling or some sad they were melting...
but they were all scrrrrrrumptious!
