More about Christmas cookie decorating / Snowman and something else.

Take a circular cookie and line the outside with frosting. Then place more amount of the frosting in the center of the cookie.

Step 2

With the help of a round-tipped modeling stick, spread the glaze in gentle circular motions.

Step 3

Let the cookie dry while you continue decorating other cookies.

Step 4

On the border of the cookie, make a half-moon with green or red icing.

Step 5

With the help of the round-tipped modeling stick, spread the colored icing until the surface is well-covered. This part will be the snowman's hat.

Step 6

With a fine smooth-tipped nozzle, you can make a border on the hat and place a dot in the middle to simulate a pompom.

Step 7

Moisten the tip of a modeling stick with black coloring and place a couple of dots on the white part of the cookie. These will be the eyes. You can do the same with orange color to make the nose.

Step 8

Take a fine brush and color the snowman's cheeks with pink powder coloring.

Step 9

With a fine-tipped piping bag, make a curved line to draw the Christmas figure's smile. You can also make points on the hat to make it more eye-catching.

Step 10

Dip the blunt-tipped modeling stick into the green icing and carefully place dots on the soft border of the cap.

The result is cute and funny snowman.

The fun thing about decorating cookies is that you can make different patterns. I like to alternate between medium and small cookies. Small cookies are great for sharing at an afternoon tea party.

Here are some ideas for decorating more cookies with Christmas designs.

Step 1

Cut out different cookie shapes and bake them.

Step 2

Once the cookies are cooled, apply white or green icing. Spread the icing with circular movements. Use the modeling stick with a round blunt tip.

Step 3

Once the base icing is dry, you can simply decorate the cookies by making lines and dots. Use a contrasting color of icing.

My favorite cookies to decorate are those that do not have icing as a base. That is, they are decorated on their original colored. The brown color of the cookies gives them a rustic touch, and I love that!

You can decorate with lines and dots. Combine with a few touches of red icing. The cookies look very pretty.

The small decorated cookies remind me of when I played as a child having tea with my dolls 😁.

When I decorate cookies, I let inspiration guide me. You can take a circular cookie and cover it with green icing. You can make lines that resemble branches. They don't have to be symmetrical lines.

Another idea is to decorate with Christmas tree drawings. It is an easy design to make.

Step 1

Cover a circular cookie with red icing and spread it evenly over the entire surface using the round blunt-tipped modeling stick.

Using a fine pastry nozzle, make zig-zag lines with white icing.

Step 2

Using a wooden toothpick, drag the white icing up and down the center of the tree design.

Step 3

You can decorate the ends of the tree with green dots. It looks very cute!

Decorating cookies is easy. It is a relaxing and fun activity. The best thing about decorating cookies is that you can make beautiful designs that will surprise anyone who wants to eat them.

I hope this tutorial has been helpful to give you some ideas and you can encourage you to make your designs at home.
