Skill level: Easy As
INGREDIENTS
300g Pams pure butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla extract
¾ cup caster sugar
2 eggs
1 cup self-raising flour
⅓ cup milk
1 ¼ cups Pams icing sugar
12 white marshmallows
White chocolate, melted
Colouring
METHOD
Preheat your oven to 170°C fan bake. In a large bowl, beat together 120g butter, vanilla and caster sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and beat until well combined. Sieve in the flour, pour in a quarter cup of milk and mix until just combined.
Spoon the mixture amongst a 12-hole lined cupcake tray. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cupcakes are lightly golden and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool the cupcakes on a cooling rack.
To make the icing, place the remaining butter in a large bowl and beat until pale. Add the icing sugar and remaining milk. Beat until light and fluffy. Reserve a quarter cup of icing. Pipe or spread the remaining icing onto the cupcakes.
Colour the white chocolate as desired, then pipe eyes, mouths and noses on each marshmallow to create snowman faces. Place a marshmallow on each cupcake.
Colour the reserved icing as desired and pipe on dots for the snowman buttons.
Top tip: Decorate your snowmen with pretzel stick arms and dark chocolate eyes and mouths.
