Ingredients
- Nutter Butter Cookies
- Wilton Cookie Icing in white
- Wilton Cookie Icing in red
- Wilton Cookie Icing in green
- Wilton Sparkle Gel in white (optional)
- Wilton Sparkle Gel in white
- Wilton Snowman Cookie Ball Decorations
- Wilton Reindeer Cookie Ball Decorations
Instructions
- Lay the Nutter Butter Cookies on wax paper.
- Squeeze the white cookie icing on Nutter Butter Cookies and let it run down the sides.
- Add more icing to the top edge and let it run down the sides to cover them.
- Position the eyes, nose and buttons on the snowman’s jacket. Take your time because it can be a bit tricky getting them positioned just right.
- Let the cookies sit for a few minutes so the icing begins to dry and holds the decorations in place.
- Lift up cookies using a spatula once the icing begins to harden but before the icing is completely dry and move them to a clean sheet of wax paper. You may have to do this a couple of times until the icing quits pooling on the wax paper.
- Let the icing dry completely which can take a little while.
- Use the red or green cookie icing to make a scarf around the snowman’s neck. If the white icing is not dry enough, the colored icing will mix with it and the scarf won’t have clean lines.
- Follow steps 5 and 6 again.
- Add some of the Wilton Sparkle Gel to the bottom of the cookies and spread it around with a butter knife so it spills over the edge of the cookie if you want the cookie to have some sparkle. If not, skip this step.
- Let the icing dry overnight.
- Once the icing is completely dry, position the cookies on the cookie platter and serve. If you are giving them as gifts, go ahead and package them up.
