AIRHEADS Candy Melting Snowmen

November 20, 2012 by Meaghan Mountford

You probably don’t know this about me, except that I say it every chance I get and seek credit whenever I am able, but I invented the melting snowman cookie. I’ve seen versions of the melting snowman cookie all over the internet, in national magazines, I even heard there was a melting snowman cookie kit for sale out there. Sigh. I’ve been chasing the cookie, whom I’ve named Mr. Melty, since I first created him back in 2008, HERE. I even made some updated cookies, and talked a bit about Mr. Melty’s journey, HERE.  Alas, Mr. Melty belongs to the world (picture me collapsing dramatically, arm draped over forehead).

(my original melting snowman cookie, circa 2008)

So I went back to the original to find an even easier way to make them, with Airheads candies. Not only can you simply follow the instructions for the original Mr. Melty, then use the White Airheads Bars in place of the fondant, but you can omit the cookie altogether and create a melting snowman entirely out of Airheads Candy.

how to make a melting snowman from Airheads candy

You will need:

white and orange Airheads Bars

scissors

food coloring pens*

light corn syrup (optional)

 

*Find the food coloring pens in the craft store or online.

 

What to do:

Snip about an inch off of a White Airheads Bar. Roll into a ball. If necessary, microwave for just a few seconds to make the candy easy to roll. From the remaining candy, cut out a wavy circle. Snip a bit off of an Orange Airheads Bar, and pinch into a cone. Smush the white ball on top of the white circle, then smush the orange cone onto the white ball. If needed, add a dab of light corn syrup to help the candy stick, but the candy should stick on its own. With food coloring pens, draw the face, stick arms and buttons.

Biscoff Milkshake – Creamy Coffeehouse Style Recipe

If you’re a fan of Biscoff cookies and their irresistible spiced caramel flavor, then this Biscoff Milkshake is about to become your new obsession. Imagine your favorite café-style frappé, but creamier, colder, and loaded with cookie butter goodness. With just a few ingredients, you can whip up a thick, frosty milkshake that tastes like a cookie in a glass.

Perfect for summer afternoons, cozy movie nights, or as a sweet treat to impress friends and family, this indulgent drink is so easy to make at home. Add a shot of coffee and you’ve got a homemade Biscoff frappé that rivals anything from your favorite coffeehouse.

Why You’ll Love This Biscoff Milkshake

  • Quick & Easy: Ready in under 5 minutes with minimal ingredients. 
  • Creamy & Indulgent: Vanilla ice cream makes it thick and luxurious. 
  • Customizable: Add coffee for an iced latte twist, or drizzle caramel for extra decadence. 
  • Perfect for Gifting: Serve in mason jars with a tied ribbon for a fun party or dessert idea. 

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 3 scoops vanilla ice cream – gives the milkshake its thick, creamy base. 
  • 200ml milk – whole milk works best for richness, but you can use oat or almond for a dairy-free option. 
  • 3 tbsp Biscoff spread – the star ingredient, adding that spiced cookie butter flavor. 
  • Whipped cream & crumbled Biscoff biscuits – for topping and presentation. 

Step-by-Step Method

  1. Blend It Up – In a blender, combine vanilla ice cream, milk, and Biscoff spread. Blend until smooth and creamy. 
  2. Pour & Decorate – Pour into a tall glass or mason jar. 
  3. Top It Off – Add a generous swirl of whipped cream, crumble over a Biscoff biscuit, and if you’re feeling extra fancy, drizzle with caramel sauce. 
  4. Serve Immediately – Pop in a straw (and maybe a spoon, because this milkshake is thick!). 

Tips for the Best Biscoff Milkshake

  • Chill Your Glass: Pop your serving glass in the freezer 10 minutes before pouring for that frosty café feel. 
  • Make It Boozy: Add a splash of Baileys or Kahlua for a grown-up version. 
  • Add Coffee: Blend in a cooled espresso shot to turn this into a Biscoff frappé. 
  • Double the Fun: Swirl extra Biscoff spread around the inside of the glass before pouring in the milkshake for a pretty presentation. 

Serving Ideas

This milkshake is perfect as:

  • A fun dessert for family movie night. 
  • A birthday party drink for cookie lovers. 
  • A quick sweet fix when that Biscoff craving hits. 
  • A homemade alternative to expensive café milkshakes. 

Storage Notes

Milkshakes are best enjoyed fresh, but if you make too much, you can freeze leftovers in popsicle molds for Biscoff ice cream pops.

This Biscoff Milkshake is the ultimate treat for anyone who loves creamy, café-style drinks without the coffee shop price tag. With just ice cream, milk, and a big spoonful of cookie butter, you can have a decadent dessert in minutes. Pin this recipe now, because once you try it, you’ll be making it again and again!
