Description

Delight in this charming Snowman Cake, a fluffy, festive dessert that brings joy and laughter to any winter celebration with its creamy flavors and whimsical design.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box cake mix (vanilla or chocolate)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups marshmallows
  • 2 cups white frosting (cream cheese or vanilla)
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips (for eyes and buttons)
  • Colored sprinkles (for scarves)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, and softened butter according to package instructions until well blended.
  3. Grease two round cake pans with nonstick spray. Pour equal amounts of batter into both pans.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes until golden brown; check doneness with a toothpick.
  5. Once baked, let the cakes cool in the pans for about ten minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
  6. Place one layer of cooled cake on a serving platter and spread a generous layer of frosting on top.
  7. Add the second layer on top and cover the entire cake with frosting using a spatula or knife.
  8. Use marshmallows to create snowman's head and body shapes on top of your frosted cake.
  9. Decorate with chocolate chips for eyes and buttons, and colored sprinkles for scarves or hats.
