Snow Globe Cookies

Snow Globe Cookies take Christmas Cookies to the next level – they are cute, delicious, and look BEAUTIFUL on the holiday table!

Equipment

  • Clear ornaments that can be assembled in halves. I found them at my local craft story (Hobby Lobby or Michaels). You also find a huge assortment online HERE
  • Small Christmas trinkets, like miniature ornaments, Christmas fondant cupcake toppers, etc. Also found at craft stores.
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Wax paper
  • Cup or something to cut the cookies to the size to match your clear ornament (sizes will vary)

Ingredients

  • Sugar cookie dough (premade is great)
  • Vanilla frosting
  • Shredded coconut or white sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to temperature according to the sugar cookie dough you’re using (pre-made dough is usually 350℉)
  • Press sugar cookie dough onto wax paper. If the dough is cold, simply work the dough in your hands because it warms up quickly. Make the dough about 1/2″ thick.
  • Use the rim of a cup that is similar in size the the clear ornament toppers you have to use to create the sugar cookies. Keep in mind that the dough will expand during baking
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
  • Bake sugar cookies according to the cookie dough directions (about 10 minutes). Keep in mind that sugar cookies burn QUICKLY! I highly recommend removing them from the oven when the edges turn gold and allowing them to cool on the baking sheet.
  • Frost the cookies with vanilla/white frosting
  • Add miniature ornaments to the center of the cookies
  • Sprinkle shredded coconut over the trinkets and white frosting
  • Top with a clear ornament! The frosting will keep everything in place
