How to make?
Ingredients
4 cups heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3
Candy for decorations, such as peppermint sticks, Dots, mini-marshmallows, licorice sticks, Junior Mints, and pretzel logs
Directions
Cut 1 6-inch circle and 1 8-inch circle out of baker’s parchment. Place them on a platter with the small one on top and the bottom directly underneath.
In a chilled mixer bowl with chilled beaters, beat the cream, sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over whip.
Place a small dab of whipped cream beneath each parchment paper circle on your plater to hold them in place.
Spread about a teaspoon of whipped cream on each cookie. Stack 4 to 5 cookies together and set them, standing upright on their edges, on the edge of one circle . Continue to sandwich the cookies and stack them all around the circle and in the middle until the circle is covered. Repeat process to assemble the second circle.
Use a spatula to spread the cream on the tops and sides of the circles to make the snowman/woman/person.
Chill the cake for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Decorate the cake shortly before serving, especially if you are using candy that might soften or bleed color into the whipped cream as it sits .
