Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F and line a mini muffin pan with 12 paper mini cupcake liners.
Place one cookie into each muffin cup. You don't need to flatten or roll them.
Bake cookies for 20 minutes and place pan on a wire rack to cool.
While cookies are baking, remove 1/4 cup of white frosting and add it to a piping bag. Place in refrigerator.
To the rest of the white icing, add green gel food coloring and mix until combined. Keep adding color until the desired green is reached. Scoop into a piping bag and refrigerate until the frosting stiffens back up after mixing.
While the cookies are cooling but still warm, take a small scoop to gently press the cookies into a cup shape.
Cool completely before removing from the pan and remove the paper liners.
Wash strawberries and cut out the crowns in a v shape.
Take a fully cooled cookie cup and pipe frosting into the cup. You want to be a little generous here.
Then push a strawberry on top of the icing and add a green candy nose just under the strawberry.
Take a toothpick to spread some of the icing to create the Grinch beard.
Then place a heart sprinkle onto the beard.
Finally, place a dot of white icing on top of each strawberry for the Santa hat and enjoy!
Notes
