# Ingredients You’ll Need:
→ Base
01 -
16 ounces store-bought sugar cookie dough
→ Toppings
02 -
1 cup white or vanilla frosting
03 -
1/2 cup tiny edible decorations
04 -
1/2 cup fluffy coconut flakes
05 -
4 transparent plastic ornament tops (just for display, not to eat)
# How to Make It:
01 -
Warm up your oven to 350°F or follow the temperature on the cookie dough package.
02 -
Flatten the sugar cookie dough on wax paper until it's about 1/2 inch thick. If it's cold, work it with your hands until it gets soft.
03 -
Grab a cup that's roughly the same size as the plastic tops and cut circles from the dough, remembering they'll grow a bit while baking.
04 -
Put some parchment paper on your baking sheet and lay out the dough circles with room between them.
05 -
Pop them in the hot oven for about 12-15 minutes until they turn slightly golden at the edges. Let them cool completely on a wire rack.
06 -
Once they're totally cool, spread a layer of white frosting across the top of each cookie.
07 -
Add the tiny edible decorations in the middle of each frosted cookie and sprinkle coconut flakes all over the top.
08 -
Put a clear plastic ornament top on each decorated cookie. Serve them up as cute snow globe treats.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Make sure the plastic tops are safe for food contact and wash them really well before using.
