Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a large bowl, cream together butter, sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar with milk to create a glaze.

Dip the tops of cooled cookies into the glaze and let excess drip off.

Decorate with chocolate chips for eyes, candy corn for noses, and decorative icing for scarves and buttons.

Add marshmallows on top for a snowman head, securing with icing.

Sprinkle with additional decorations as desired.
