Cupcake Snowman Cookies


Lincoln gets really excited whenever we see a snowman in someone's yard and was thrilled when we built our own a couple of weeks ago.  I was planning on making some sort of cookie for our church's food distribution and wanted something festive.   I decided to combine Lincoln's snowman love with my desire for a whimsical cookie and made these cupcake cookies with Snowman faces!

My husband was actually the one to find this super fun and easy recipe on a box of Pillsbury Funfetti cake mix and try it out a couple of years ago.  I love the taste of these cookies, it really is like a cupcake, with sprinkles inside and everything!  Mmmm!  Definitely a great cookie for anytime of the year and so cute with decorations on top :)
