Spindrift
From the Super Mario Wiki, the Mario encyclopedia

A Spindrift is an odd-looking creature from Super Mario 64. Spindrifts have a flower of their heads to hover around. They also have a yellow cone at the bottom of their heads. A green cape tops the first half of the yellow cone. A Spindrift's head is just a white sphere with two eyes and a mouth shaped like a reverted triangle, making the face look like it is surprised at something.
If Mario jumps on the creature, the Spindrift will release three coins, and Mario will Spin Jump in the air. Spindrifts appear in both snow worlds Cool, Cool Mountain and Snowman's Land.
Apparently, Spindrifts were supposed to appear in New Super Mario Bros., but were taken out of the final copy.
