To make Santa Faces; spread each cookie with a small amount of creamy frosting and sprinkle top third of cookie with red sugar, then sprinkle coconut on bottom third for Santa's beard. Then press two chocolate chips for eyes and a red M&M for a nose, and add a miniature marshmallow for tassel on cap. Leave cookies air dry until frosting is set.
