- 24 unfrosted vanilla cupcakes, divided
- 1 (16 ounce) package vanilla frosting, divided
- 4 black licorice laces
- 6 red licorice laces
- 1 ounce ready-to-use white fondant
- 1 drop orange food coloring
- 48 candy-coated milk chocolate pieces (such as M&M's®)
- Trim the dry top off 12 of the cupcakes and crumble the soft cake interiors into a bowl. Add about 5 ounces of vanilla icing and mix well. Add more frosting if needed to bring the mixture together into a ball so that it can be easily shaped. Cover bowl and chill cake mixture in the fridge for 20 minutes.
- Frost remaining 12 cupcakes with a thin layer of white vanilla frosting.
- Remove cake mixture and roll with wet hands into 2 different sized balls for the snowmen's torsos and heads, 12 bigger balls and 12 smaller balls. Stick a small ball on top of a big ball to make the snowman, using some frosting if the balls are not very sticky. Place snowmen onto frosted cupcakes.
- Cut black licorice laces into small squares for the eyes and mouth using scissors and attach them with the tip of a knife to the head.
- Mix white fondant with orange food coloring to turn it orange and make little carrot noses out of the orange fondant. Press into the snowman faces.
- Attach 2 dark colored candy-coated milk chocolate pieces into the torso and cupcake as buttons. Attach 2 candy-coated milk chocolate pieces on either side of the head and connect them with a piece of black licorice for the earmuffs.
- Cut red licorice laces into 2 1/2-inch long pieces and wrap around the snowman's neck as a scarf.
