Ingredients

  • Confectioners’ sugar (4 c)
  • Vanilla extract (1 tsp)
  • Pasteurized egg whites (3 ounces)
  • Dark chocolate wafers (16 oz)
  • A touch of edible gold dusting powder (for garnishing)

Instructions

Step 1: Add the dark chocolate wafers to a bowl and microwave it to melt the chocolate. Pour the melted chocolate in a Ziploc bag and seal it carefully.

Step 2: Prepare a cookie baking tray and place a mold on it. Then pour the melted chocolate into the mold. Transfer them to the fridge for about 5 – 7 minutes until they’re formed into shapes and can be removed from the molds easily. Repeat the same step to make 24 – 30 chocolate toppers for the cookies.

Step 3: Squeeze the remaining chocolate in a small bowl.

Step 4: In a separate bowl, beat the vanilla and egg whites until they become frothy. Gradually pour in sugar to the mixture and blend until everything is combined with the mixer on low speed. Change to high speed and beat mix for about 7 – 8 more minutes until the icing makes glossy peaks.

Step 5: Fill a piping bag with the icing. Leave a little icing to dye them with food colorings. Separate the icing into three different bowls and dye them red, yellow and black.

Step 2: Spread the melted chocolate on a chocolate topper. Then carefully place the topper on the snowman cookie.

Step 3: Frost the cookies with the royal icing you just made. Add black icing to make the hat of the snowman, the red icing for the scarf and the yellow icing for the nose. Brush the gold dusting powder on top of every chocolate piece to make them more appealing.

Step 4: Allow the cookies to rest before serving.
