Add the rest of the flour and knead into a smooth dough with your hands.

Wrap in foil and put in a cool place for about 2 hours. Roll out the dough on a floured work surface to a thickness of about 4 mm. Cut out about 15 rocking horses and 15 snowmen each. Knead dough remains again. Place on 2 baking trays lined with baking paper. Brush with milk.

Coat snowmen completely, rocking horses partly with it. Colour the remaining icing with food colouring. Border rocking horses with it.
