Snowman Sugar Cookie Pie Food

SNOWMAN SUGAR COOKIE PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Spray bottom only of 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, mix cookie mix, softened butter and egg with spoon until soft dough forms. Stir in 1/4 cup green, red and white candy sprinkles. Press dough in bottom of pie plate.
• Bake 33 to 38 minutes or until center is set and edges are golden brown. If needed, cover edges of cookie with foil to keep from overbrowning. Cool completely, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Spread frosting over top and to edges of cookie pie. For hat, press blue candies across top third of frosted cookie. Slightly flatten marshmallow; place at top of circle for pom-pom. Sprinkle remaining frosted cookie with 1 tablespoon white candy sprinkles. Place 2 black gumdrops for eyes. Press 1 orange gumdrop to form pointed nose; place in center of cookie. Place brown candies in half circle under nose for smile. To serve, cut into wedges.

SNOWMAN HAND PIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the two sheets of dough. Using a 3 3/4-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 12 circles. Using a 2 3/4-inch round cookie cutter, cut out another 12 circles, re-rolling dough scraps if necessary. Place 6 of the larger circles on the parchment. Place 6 of the smaller circles on top of the larger circles, overlapping by 1/2 inch, to form the snowmen's heads.
• Spread the 6 snowmen shapes with a heaping tablespoonful of marmalade each, leaving a 1/4-inch border all around. Brush the edges with the beaten egg. Cover each snowman body with one of the remaining large circles, then cover the snowmen's heads with the smaller circles. Crimp the outer edges of the snowmen with a fork to seal, then lightly crimp the lower edge of the head to attach it to the body. Chill at least 30 minutes.
• Bake the tarts until flaky and golden, 20 to 25 minutes, brushing with the milk after 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the lemon juice and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Spread the glaze on the cooled tarts and let set, about 5 minutes.
• Fit a small pastry bag with a #1 or #2 plain pastry tip, or snip 1/8-inch off the tip of a resealable plastic bag. Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, until just melted, about 1 1/2 minutes total. Transfer the chocolate to the pastry bag or plastic bag and pipe details like eyes, mouths and buttons on the snowmen. Finish with an apricot nose on each. Serve immediately.

EASY SNOWMAN COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, stir cookie mix, butter and egg until soft dough forms. On ungreased cookie sheets, drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart.
• Bake 11 to 14 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.
• Frost and decorate 1 cookie at a time. After spreading frosting on cookie, add licorice for band of earmuffs and candies for ear "covers" and snowman face.

MELTED SNOWMAN SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Follow baking directions on sugar cookie pouch, dividing dough evenly into 12 round cookies.
• On cooled cookies, draw a "snow puddle" with Betty Crocker™ White Cookie Icing. TIP: Draw the outline of the puddle, then go back and fill in the shape.
• While the icing is still wet, immediately place a marshmallow to one side of the cookie.
• MAKE THE ARMS: Once the icing and marshmallow have set, pipe two "branches" onto each cookie using black gel. Add fingers with chocolate sprinkles.
• MAKE THE FACE: Using a small dot of white cookie icing, stick two "coal" eyes and a nose onto the marshmallow with Rainbow Chips. Pipe a small dot for the mouth with black gel.
• MAKE THE SCARF AND BUTTONS: Using blue, red, or green cookie icing; carefully draw scarves around the base of the marshmallow. Using a small dot of white cookie icing, stick three "coal" buttons beneath the scarf with Rainbow Chips.
• Allow cookies to set for at least one hour before serving.
