Hot Chocolate w/ Marshmallows Sugar Cookies

Today I am participating in the Lady Behind The Curtain Dessert Challenge, and I made Hot Chocolate with Marshmallows Sugar Cookies. The ingredients for this month are cocoa or chocolate pudding and marshmallows. This is always such a fun challenge, and I am so glad to finally be participating again. I made these sugar cookies because I am always trying to improve my decorating skills, and because they were fun!

Hot Chocolate w/ Marshmallows Sugar Cookies

I used my "go to" sugar cookie recipe to make the cookies, and then I used 
my favorite frosting recipe for the top.
When I made the chocolate in the mug, I used some of the frosting and added 
a tablespoon of cocoa powder to the frosting. It came out really tasty!
I drew on a little mug with a food marker, and then
outlined the mug with the frosting.
I filled in the mug and .....
added hot chocolate and a handle.
Pop the marshmallows on top, and that's it!

One of my resolutions for the new year is to become
a better cookie decorator, so this is the beginning
of the journey. We will see.

Thanks for joining me today!
