Instructions
Place a sugar cookie onto a clean work surface.
Spread a generous amount of chocolate frosting onto the top of the cookie, about 1 heaping tablespoon. Try to keep the surface flat, but lines are ok and add character.
Place a dot of chocolate frosting onto the “m” side of either a red or brown m&m candy.
Secure the candy onto your vanilla wafer for the nose and place onto your freshly frosted sugar cookie.
Add the eyes and pretzels for the finishing touch!
You can either leave the pretzels whole or break them for a more authentic antler appearance.
