Marshmallow Buttercream Frosting

- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp Heavy cream

- Orange gel tube
Instructions
Making Marshmallow Buttercream Frosting
- To make the frosting, add butter to a large stand mixing bowl and mix on high speed for 1 minute.
- Turn speed to low and slowly add powdered sugar until mostly incorporated.
- Pause to scrape the sides of the bowl, add marshmallow fluff and heavy cream.
- Continue to mix on high speed for 1 - 2 minutes until a light and fluffy consistency has been achieved. Transfer frosting to a piping bag and set aside.
Decorating the Snowmen Cupcakes
- To decorate the cupcakes, use a black edible marker to draw eyes and mouth. Use orange food gel to create the nose.
- To make a snowman hat, roll out the black fondant to a thin layer. Using the round end of a piping tip cut out small circles for the base. In your hand, roll a small amount into a ball and slightly press down to create the top of the hat.
- When cupcakes have completely cooled, add frosting, marshmallow and hat, in that order.
