Mickey Mouse Snowman Cookies

Mickey Mouse Snowman Cookies

Frosted snowman cookies wearing the recognizable Mickey Mouse ears.

Ingredients

  • Batch of sugar cookie dough
  • Flour
  • Wax paper
  • Rolling pin
  • Round cookie or fondant cutters, one 2-inch and one 3-inch (or smaller sizes)
  • Small pastry brush and water
  • Spatula
  • Baking sheet
  • Wire cooling rack
  • White cookie icing (the type that hardens when it sets)
  • Kitchen knife
  • Currants or raisins for snowmen eyes
  • Orange candies for noses (such as Mike and Ike candy)
  • Mini chocolate chips for grins
  • Small green candies for buttons (such as M&Ms or jelly beans)
  • Cocoa candy melts
  • Ramekin or other small microwavable container to heat the Candy Melts
  • Small chocolate candies for ears (such as Junior Mints)
  • Red fruit snack (such as Fruit by the Foot)
  • Kitchen scissors

Instructions

  1. Working on a flour (for gluten-free try Bob's Red Mill flour used by Disney)-dusted piece of wax paper, roll out the dough 3/8 inch thick.
  2. Use the cookie cutters to cut out an equal number of larger and smaller circles.
  3. Assemble each snowman cookie by using the smaller cutter to cut a curved notch in the top of a larger circle.
  4. Moisten the cut edge with a bit of water.
  5. Fit the smaller circle into the notch and gently press the dough together at the seam to help it stick together.
  6. Use a spatula to transfer the assembled snowmen to a baking sheet and bake the cookies according to the recipe directions.
  7. Allow the baked cookies to cool briefly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Working with one cookie at a time, spread white cookie icing on each and gently press currant eyes, a candy nose, a chocolate chip grin, and candy buttons in place before the frosting sets.
  9. Set the cookies aside for a few hours to let the icing harden.
  10. Melt a handful of cocoa candy melts according to the package directions.
  11. Again working with one cookie at a time, dip the top of each snowman's head into the melted candy and then set it on a sheet of wax paper.
  12. For each ear, place two chocolate candies back-to-back and gently press them into the melted candy at the top of the head.
  13. As the candy melts re-harden, the mint ears will stick in place.
  14. Cut a long scarf-length strip from the red fruit snack and fringe the ends.
  15. Wrap the scarf around the snowman's neck, crossing one end over the other to hold it in place.
