Another Snowman Snack

Last year, I made snowman face cookies.  This year, instead of just making the snowman's head, I made the whole snowman. 


I took two sugar cookies right out of the oven and added chocolate chip details (eyes and mouth on one cookie, buttons on the other cookie).  The chocolate chips melt, but stay in position nicely to look like snowman details.  I added an orange icing nose, a fruit leather scarf, pretzel stick arms (attached with a tiny bit of white icing), and a plain sugar cookie for the bottom. 

I served these yesterday as an after school snack with white hot chocolate (melted snowmen?).  The white hot chocolate recipe (actually called Snow Flake Cocoa) can be found at allrecipes.  Thank you to Little Wonders' Days for posting the hot chocolate recipe last month!
