What you'll need:
- 1 bag SNICKERS® Brand MINIS®
- 1 bag TWIX® Brand MINIS®
- 1 small bag M&M’S® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies
- 1 bag (17.5 oz.) Sugar Cookie Mix
- 2 teaspoons ginger
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon cloves
- 1 can (16-oz.) vanilla frosting
- Yellow and red food coloring
- 3 cookie sheet pans
- Resealable plastic bag
- Spatula
What to do:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line the cookie sheet pans with parchment paper.
- Roughly chop 2 cups SNICKERS® Brand MINIS® and set aside.
- Combine the sugar cookie mix with the ginger, cinnamon, cloves and chopped SNICKERS® Brand MINIS® in a bowl. Follow the directions on the package and prepare the cookie dough.
- Drop 2 heaping tablespoons of cookie dough for each cookie onto the prepared sheet pans about 2 inches apart and slightly flatten the top. Bake for approximately 12-15 minutes, or until golden. Remove from the oven, transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
- Meanwhile, divide the frosting equally between two cups. Tint one yellow and the other red. Spoon the yellow frosting into a resealable plastic bag. Frost the cookies with red frosting and write each kid’s family name with the yellow frosting. Using the photograph as guide, press a TWIX® Brand MINIS® at the top and decorate with green M&M’S® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies for the leaves.
