Equipment
- baking sheet
- Mixing bowl
- Hand held mixer
- Mini ice cream scoop or spoon
Ingredients
- 1 box yellow cake mix 15-18 ounces
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs large
- Mini M&M's
- Black Icing
- White Icing
Instructions
Make the cookies
- In a large bowl, stir the cake mix, oil, and eggs until combined.
- Refrigerate the dough for 15-20 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350° degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- Spoon the dough onto the baking sheet using a small ice cream scoop or a tablespoon. Leave about 1 inch between the cookies. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cookies are set.
- Remove from oven and allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before removing them to cool on a cooking rack. Let cookies cool completely before coating in icing.
Decorate the cookies
- Cover the top of each cookie with the white icing.
- Using the Mini M&M’s, create a snowman face using brown candies for the eyes and mouth. Use an orange candy for the nose. You can put the orange candy down flat like the candies for the eyes and mouth. You can also put the candy on its edge so it will appear more carrot like.
- Using the black icing, draw a ear muff line and then place two mini M&M’s on each end. Use the colored candies (green, blue, red and yellow) for the ear muffs.
