How to Make Frosted Holiday Angels
- In a small bowl, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter, 3 cups powdered sugar, and 1/4 cup milk.
- Beat with an electric mixer on low speed, scraping down the sides frequently, until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Divide the frosting into several bowls and tint with pastel food coloring to your desired shades.
- Set aside a portion of white or yellow frosting for attaching heads, hair, and faces.
- Place one sugar cone upside down for each angel body.
- Frost the sugar cones with your pastel icings.
- Attach a pretzel twist to each cone with frosting to create wings.
- Decorate the angel bodies with decorator gels, additional frosting, and candies. Let stand for 5-10 minutes to set.
- For the angel heads, decorate a small wafer cookie with candies using frosting to attach eyes, nose, and mouth.
- Attach each head to the top of a frosted sugar cone using frosting as adhesive.
- For the hair, spread a thin layer of frosting on the top and back of the cookie head.
- Sprinkle generously with coconut flakes and let the frosting set. Place a small fruit-flavored ring-shaped candy on top of the cookie for a halo.
- Allow angels to set completely before handling (at least 30 minutes).
