Easy No-Bake Santa Cookies Recipe
Easy No-Bake Santa Cookies come together with minimal effort. The ingredients are easy to find and inexpensive and you don't even need the oven or stove!
Ingredients
Yield: 12 cookies
- 12 peanut butter wafer cookies, Nutter Butters
- 1 cup vanilla icing
- red sanding sugar
- small white decorating pearls
- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- mini chocolate chips
- small red hots
Instructions
- Line up cookies. The quickest and easiest way to make these Santas is to do each step to all the cookies before moving to the next step.
- Place ¼ cup icing in small storage bag and cut a tiny hole in the corner.
- Starting with Santa’s hat, spread icing about 1" down from the top of each cookie being sure to cover the sides. Sprinkle red sanding sugar over icing. Now pipe a line of icing below the red sugar and press in small white pearls to crate the trim. Santa has a hat!
- Next is the beard. Spread icing over the bottom half of the cookie, again being sure to cover the sides. Press in shredded coconut until all icing is covered.
- Now pipe a dab of icing on the backs of two mini chocolate chips and put the eyes in place then attach the nose (red hot) using another dab of icing.
- Watch the kids eyes light up!
Notes
Make a fun afternoon out of decorating the cookies—set the decorations on the table and let the kids go to town!
