Create red (outline) wiggles between the green and white line and a small round shape at the top of the hat. Make a small carrot nose in a zigzag motion with orange outline icing.

Rudolph Cookie
Scrape a mark to see the area where you want the face to be. Outline it with dark brown icing and create an arc on the top half, then fill it in. Outline the bottom half with light brown icing then fill, use red outline icing, and layer for a red puffy nose. Add two little black dots for the eyes and peach outline icing for the antlers.
Santa’s Face Cookie
Lightly brush a peach icing on the center of the cookie, right where the face will be. Make two little lines on each side and an oval in the middle, the top half will be the hat and should be filled with red, while the bottom half is the beard and should be filled with white. Outline and fill the mustache, then add a white fuzzy layer on the top center of the hat. Create two little black dots for the eyes and peach icing for the puffy nose.
Penguin Cookie
Lightly scrape a top heart shape on the bottom of the cookie then outline with black icing until you reach the top half. Fill the top with black and the bottom with white. Use an orange outline icing to make a triangular mouth, then add two black dots for the eyes and draw a few strands of hair.
Mrs. Claus’ Face Cookie
Draw the hairline with white outline icing and fill it in, add a round fuzzy bun on the top, then use green and orange to add some details. Outline and fill the bottom half with peach icing, use black outline icing to draw the eyeglasses, and make two black dots for the eyes. Layer peach icing for a puffy nose and draw a little smile with black icing, then add a little red heart shape for the lips.
