Perfect for holiday gatherings or gifting, melted snowman cookies are guaranteed to bring smiles and add charm to any occasion. This recipe makes around 24 cookies, however, the dough can be made and frozen in batches for convenience. Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to one week.
