What You Need for a Cinnamon Roll Snowman
- 1 8-count package cinnamon rolls
- Mini chocolate chips
- Red M&Ms
- Pretzel sticks
How to Make Snowman Cinnamon Rolls
The first step is to heat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (You could also use baking spray if you don’t have parchment paper).
Then separate all the cinnamon rolls and set five rolls aside.
Unroll the remaining three rolls and cut each strip in half.
Roll up each piece into a small circle and place one small circle on top of the full-sized cinnamon rolls and lightly press them together on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the cinnamon rolls for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden brown.
Allow the rolls to cool for a few minutes, then spread the icing over the top in an even layer. (Placing them on a wire rack can help them cool faster).
Use mini chocolate chips to create a face on the top of each snowman.
Use the red M&Ms to make buttons on the front of each snowman.
Use the pretzel sticks as arms.
Other Ways to Decorate Cinnamon Roll Snowmen
You can always use different candy to create your snowmen!
Here are a few different ways to decorate your snowmen:
- Mini orange gumdrop for a nose
- Mini Twizzlers to make a scarf
- Blueberries for eyes and a button
- Bacon for a scarf or snowman arms
- Mini M&Ms for eyes
Tips For Making These Melting Snowman Cinnamon Rolls
While you could do this with homemade cinnamon rolls, we prefer the package of pre-made cinnamon rolls to save time.
Let the cinnamon rolls cool before frosting and decorating to prevent any melting.
If the cream cheese frosting is too hard, you can soften it at room temperature as the cinnamon rolls cook. If it’s still too hard to spread, remove it from the wrapper and microwave it on a microwave-safe dish for 15 seconds or until softened.
