MARSHMALLOW MELTING SNOWMAN COOKIES
These adorable holiday cookies will charm and delight recipients of all ages. Simply pipe mounds of marshmallow creme on top of sugar cookie dough. As they bake, the marshmallow slumps off the side to create a melting snowman. Decorate with an assortment of candies and sprinkles to bring these snowmen to life. Note: Marshmallow creme can become sticky at room temperature, so make sure to separate each cookie with wax paper in your tins to prevent them from sticking.

Steps:
- Line 3 rimmed baking sheets with parchment; set aside.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. Beat the sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the vanilla and egg and beat to incorporate. Add the flour mixture in 2 batches and beat on medium-low speed after each addition until incorporated.
- Scoop heaping tablespoonfuls of the batter with a cookie scoop onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart (12 cookies per sheet). Use your palm to gently flatten each dough ball to level the surface.
- Transfer the marshmallow creme to a piping bag or resealable plastic bag and snip the tip. Pipe about 2 teaspoons of the creme on top each cookie, directly in the center. Refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.
- Bake the cookies, 1 baking sheet at a time, until the bottoms and edges are barely golden brown and the marshmallow creme has puffed and spread on top of each cookie, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets (the creme should deflate slightly), then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the cookies are cool, decorate the face of each one as follows: affix 1 peanut butter cup, cut-side down, to the head for the snowman's hat; add 2 brown candy-coated chocolates for the eyes and 1 orange candy-coated chocolate for the nose; arrange 5 black nonpareils for the mouth and 2 red or green confetti sprinkles for the buttons. Finally, attach 1 pretzel piece on each side for the arms.
- The cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Make sure to separate the cookies with wax paper to prevent them from sticking together.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Melt the white candy coating in a microwave-safe bowl. Once melted and smooth, glue 3 marshmallows together by spreading a dab of melted coating between them. Repeat until you have 12 snowmen, each made up of 3 marshmallows.
- Place the snowmen on a baking sheet and refrigerate briefly to set the coating.
- Carefully push a skewer into each snowman, making sure the skewer's tip stays hidden inside the marshmallow.
- To make each snowman's scarf, slice the Fruit by the Foot into a narrow strip about 4 to 5 inches long and wrap it around the snowman's neck. A dab of candy coating will secure the scarf.
- To make the nose, cut the gummy orange slice into small triangles and glue a triangle into the middle of each snowman's head with a drop of candy coating.
- To make the arms, cut the pretzel sticks in half and dip the ends in the melted coating. Push the 2 pretzel pieces into opposite sides of each snowman's middle section.
- Melt the chocolate candy coating in a microwave-safe bowl. Using a toothpick (or an extra skewer), draw each snowman's eyes, mouth, and buttons with candy coating. Chill all of the snowmen in the refrigerator.
- Line a baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper. To make each snowman's hat, drop a teaspoon of chocolate candy coating onto the baking sheet, then tap the sheet against the counter; the coating should spread into an even disc, about 1 inch in diameter.
- Press 1 peanut butter cup upside down onto each chocolate disc, then chill in the refrigerator until set.
- Remove the snowmen and hats from the refrigerator. To finish your snowmen, dab chocolate coating onto the bottom of each hat, then press it firmly onto a snowman's head.
- Once the candy coating has set, your snowmen are ready to serve and eat.

Steps:
- Dust an 11-by-15-inch baking dish liberally with confectioners' sugar. Pour 1/2 cup cool water into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and sprinkle the gelatin over.
- Meanwhile, combine the granulated sugar, corn syrup, salt and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium high heat and cook, swirling the pan occasionally without stirring, until the mixture reaches 240 degrees F on a candy thermometer, 6 to 7 minutes.
- With the mixer on low speed, slowly pour the sugar syrup into the gelatin mixture. Once all of the syrup has been added, increase the speed to high and whisk until the mixture is bright white and forms very stiff peaks and the bowl has cooled and is just warm to the touch at the bottom, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the peppermint extract and mix to combine. Spread the mixture into the prepared pan, smooth the top and dust liberally with confectioners' sugar. Let sit overnight before cutting.
- When ready to assemble, combine 1 cup confectioners' sugar and the cornstarch in a small sieve. Liberally dust a work surface with some of the mixture and unmold the marshmallow slab in one piece (you will need to guide it from the pan with an offset spatula and your fingers). Dust both sides of the slab well with the sugar-cornstarch mixture. Using 1-inch, 1 1/4-inch and 1 1/2-inch round cutters dipped in confectioners' sugar, cut 12 marshmallows of each size. Dust the marshmallows all over with the remaining sugar-cornstarch mixture.
- Build the snowmen on the lollipop sticks, starting with the largest diameter marshmallows. Stick a licorice candy on top of each for a hat. With scissors, cut the gummy straws in half lengthwise. Flatten the pieces with a rolling pin to make flat scarves for the snowmen and tie them on. Stick the pretzel pieces into the middle marshmallows for "arms Use the orange candies to make noses.
- Melt the semisweet chocolate in a small bowl in the microwave at 50 percent power in 15 second intervals, stirring after each, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Stir until completely smooth and transfer to a piping bag with a small plain tip. Pipe chocolate eyes, a mouth and buttons onto each snowman.
