The New Year holidays are getting closer, and I really want to create a New Year mood, even if it's +7 outside the window.
At school, a friend of mine treated my daughter to sweets that she made with her mother, and now mine began to walk around and ask us to make something tasty together too. Because we have already made sweets with her, you can also see them on my page, so we decided to make sweet snowmen. They go to the festive table with a stretch the first time, but they are very suitable for a family festive table). We did this for the first time, so do not judge strictly.
I suggest you look at several cookie options.
So, for "Snowmen" # 1. we needed:
- White chocolate or sweet bar - 1 pc.
- Oreo cookies - 1 pack 100 gr.
- Toothpicks
- Colored glaze - now in any grocery store in the department where flour, starch, jelly are sold, you can find a million different sprinkles, glaze, marzipans, etc., so the recipe may vary depending on what you have on kitchen.
We put a pot of water on the fire, and melt the white chocolate in a water bath.
While the chocolate is melting, pin the Oreo cookies one by one onto the toothpicks.
Initially, I wanted to make a full-fledged snowman, consisting of three pieces of cookies, but a toothpick was no longer suitable for this, but a wooden skewer is larger compared to a toothpick, and the cookies crumbled in hands, so this is an option, but it is no less interesting.
The cookies are ready, the chocolate has melted. Pour chocolate into any container, let it cool for a couple of minutes. Then we dip the cookies in chocolate and put them on a plate.
You need to let it freeze. Put the workpiece in the refrigerator. After 10 minutes, you can start decorating the cookies. I bought two colors of glaze: white and blue, I also had chocolate drops and multi-colored and chocolate sprinkles. White glaze can be used as glue. On which eyes, nose, eyebrows will be attached.
But this is all your improvisation! In a few minutes Snowmen # 1 is ready.
"Snowmen" No. 2.
For them you need:
Oreo cookies - 1 package 200 gr.
Butter 100 gr.
White chocolate - 1 bar
Multicolored glaze, sprinkles, chocolate-coin, etc.
We turn the cookies into small crumbs in the food processor.
Mix with butter.
We form a ball. We sculpt small round balls from it.
To make it convenient to dip them in chocolate, send your workpiece to the refrigerator for half an hour. This will prevent the cookies from crumbling into small crumbs.
Melt the chocolate in a water bath, let it cool a little. Gently dip the cookie and butter ball into the chocolate with a spoon and let it freeze.
Now the most time consuming job is decorating the snowman.
We do the face in the same way as in option 1, I put chocolate coins on the snowmen's head.
You can also see my daughter's masterpiece), but beauty is secondary. The main thing is the mood with which you made your cookies !!
Let the liver freeze. That's all! Bon Appetit everyone!!! New Year's cookies are ready !!!
