Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Melting Snowman Cookies.

1. Step 1

   In a spacious mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to gently whip the egg whites until they become frothy.

2. Step 2

   Gradually incorporate the confectioners' sugar, blending until you achieve a thick icing that maintains its shape.

3. Step 3

   Stir in lemon juice until the icing reaches your preferred consistency.

4. Step 4

   On a large sheet of waxed paper, space the cookies about an inch apart.

5. Step 5

   Generously spread the icing over each cookie, allowing it to cascade over the edges for a delightful melting effect.

6. Step 6

   Prepare a microwave-safe plate by greasing it, then place a marshmallow on the plate.

7. Step 7

   Microwave the marshmallow for 20 to 30 seconds, or until it begins to puff up.

8. Step 8

   While the icing is still wet, gently position the marshmallow on the edge of a cookie to create the illusion of a melted snowman.

9. Step 9

   Repeat this charming process with the remaining marshmallows and cookies.

10. Step 10

    With black decorating gel, pipe twig-like arms onto the icing, and use the gel to craft coal eyes and a mouth on the marshmallow.

11. Step 11

    For the carrot nose, apply orange decorating gel just below the coal eyes.

12. Step 12

    To add a festive touch, arrange silver nonpareils as buttons down the center of the icing, and use red or green decorating gel to fashion scarves or bow ties.

13. Step 13

    Allow the cookies to dry completely for at least one hour before carefully lifting them from the waxed paper, revealing your delightful winter treats.
