Ingredients:

1 box of white cake mix
2 large egg whites
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 tbsp. flour
White frosting
Red gel food coloring
Small pretzel sticks
Large marshmallows
Wilton Silver Color Mist
Wilton round frosting tip (optional)
Disposable piping bag (optional)
Parchment paper

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Cookies

Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with a Silpat mat or parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the white cake mix, egg whites, vegetable oil, and flour. Mix well until fully combined.
Add several drops of red gel food coloring to the dough and continue mixing until the color is even. (Using your hands can help!)

Use a small cookie scoop to form 2-inch dough balls and place them 2-3 inches apart on the baking sheet.

Bake for 8-10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let them cool completely.

Step 2: Make Thor’s Hammers

Place large marshmallows on parchment paper and spray them with Wilton Silver Color Mist. Allow them to dry, then flip and spray the other side.

Once dry, insert a small pretzel stick into the base of each marshmallow to create a mini hammer.

Step 3: Assemble the Cookies

Add several drops of red gel food coloring to white frosting and mix until fully combined.

If using a piping bag and frosting tip, attach the tip, fill the bag with frosting, and generously frost each cookie. If not, use a small spatula to spread the frosting evenly.

Place one hammer on top of each frosted cookie.

Repeat with all cookies and enjoy!

Tips for the Best Thor’s Hammer Cookies

Let the marshmallows dry completely before inserting the pretzel sticks to prevent smudging the silver color.
Use gel food coloring instead of liquid food coloring to get a vibrant red dough without making it too sticky.
Don’t overbake the cookies – they should be soft and slightly chewy to contrast with the crunch of the pretzel stick.
