This charming Whipped Butter Snowman is surprisingly easy to make. Serve the festive snowman as a tasty appetizer with toasted slices of sourdough or crostini. He’s almost too cute to eat!
The snowman is best enjoyed right away for the ideal whipped consistency.
However, if you are making this ahead of time, be sure to store it in the fridge and take it out at least half an hour before serving.
