- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon milk

- 12 large marshmallows

- 1 drop yellow food coloring, or as desired
Recipe
Cook Time: 10 mins
Ready Time: 1 hr 55 mins
- preheat oven to 350 degrees f (175 degrees c).
- beat butter in a bowl using an electric mixer until fluffy, about 2 minutes. beat sugar, baking powder, and salt into butter until just combined. beat egg, milk, and vanilla extract into butter-sugar mixture; add flour and mix until dough is just combined. cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until dough is slightly chilled, about 10 minutes.
- scoop dough into balls slightly larger than golf balls; flatten into cookies. arrange cookies on a baking sheet.
- bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden brown, 10 to 20 minutes. cool on baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely, at least 30 minutes.
- butter a microwave-safe plate. place marshmallows on the prepared plate.
- microwave marshmallows until slightly puffed, 10 to 15 seconds. gently press marshmallows until bottoms slightly ooze.
- whisk confectioners' sugar and water together in a bowl until icing is slightly thicker than drizzle-consistency. pour icing over cookies so it runs over the edges, reserving about 1 tablespoon.
- melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl, about 30 seconds. pour melted chocolate into a piping bag with a small tip or a plastic bag with a corner snipped.
- press 1 marshmallow close to an edge of each cookie to be the snowman's head. draw 'stick arms' onto the icing using the melted chocolate.
- divide the reserved 1 tablespoon icing into 2 small bowls. mix red food coloring into 1 of the bowls and orange food coloring into the other bowl. decorate the snowmen with scarves or ties using the red icing and yellow icing.
