This is a fun play on the common Melted Snowman Cookies you see using marshmallows! This version is all cookie though with an Oreo truffle top and an Oreo base! It’s like getting two desserts in one and I am not sure what is better than that!
These no-bake melted snowman cookies are both delicious and adorable. In the past, you may have seen the cute sugar cookie with the marshmallow on top and the icing pooled to resemble a snowman melting. Those are adorable and delicious as well, I have made them!
Here we have another take on the melted snowman cookie and with this one, an Oreo Truffle (YUM!) sits on top of another oreo cookie with the pooled white chocolate in place of icing to resemble melted snow. So delicious with all the chocolate!
You might remember this Valentine Oreo Truffle I shared in the past and the truffle for this cookie is made the same way! It helps to stick a toothpick into the truffle to help dip it into the melted chocolate.
To add the melted snow, simply place an Oreo on a cookie sheet and either pipe or spoon some melted white chocolate to create a drip effect.
Add the coated truffle on top of the cookie bottom and then add the mini peanut butter cup for a cute hat!
Eyes and buttons for the melted snowman cookies are made of black round pearl sprinkles and a carrot nose made from some melted orange chocolate melts. Pipe this one using a piping bag for ease!

Melted Snowman Cookie Ingredients
Since we are not actually baking cookies the ingredient list is quite small. There is no need for sugar cookie mix, all-purpose flour, sugar, egg, almond extract, salt, vanilla extract, or baking powder. We only need a few ingredients:
- Double Stuffed Oreos
- Regular Oreoes
- Cream Cheese
- White Chocolate Melting Wafers
- Orange Candy Melts
- Black Pearl Sprinkles
- Mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups*
*Don’t be confused with Miniature Peanut Butter Cups, those are the small individually wrapped cups that are larger than a Hershey Kiss. These are the MINI peanut butter cups and are in a ziptop bag and are not wrapped. I linked them above so you can see what I am talking about!
You can make melted snowman cookies recipe gluten-free by using the Gluten-Free Oreos!! GF Oreos come in regular and gluten-free double stuffed!
Kitchen Gadgets Needed for Snowman Cookies:
Same with the ingredients, since we are not baking these cookies we don’t need a mixer, bowl or cooling racks or
- Food Processor or Blender.
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper
- Cookie Scoop (helpful, not needed)
- Piping bags or plastic baggies work well also.
- Bowl
- Spoon
Tips for Cookies:
- Since we are using melted chocolate vs frosting these melted snowman cookies can sit at room temperature.
- If you don’t have a food processor, a Blender such as a blendtec will also work great. You can also use an electric mixer it will just take a bit longer and you may have to break up some cookie chunks by hand.
- You can add more or less decorations.
- These are very forgiving cookies so perfect for kids to help.
- Use Candy Melts or icing for the nose. Colored Gel doesn’t stick well to the chocolate and will run down your cookie.
- If you would like to flavor these, you may add 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of peppermint extract to the white chocolate or to the truffle cookie dough.
- If there are any left, these can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
