Some thoughts:

• The big payoffs for playing all-snow are Marit Lage's Slumber and Dead of Winter. I would expect to see both of these cards here (ideally 2x Slumber, 4x DoW).

• Some of your cards are too situational to be useful. Specifically Annul and Tangletrap are just going to be dead-cards in a lot of games - i’d suggest ditching them.

• I’d also suggest ditching all your current enchants - Rime Transfusion, Winter's Rest, and Withercrown all just seem far too weak.

• you should really be playing either Mana Leak or Counterspell rather than Anticognition - which has too narrow an application.

• Rimebound Dead feels very weak, and only useful defensively. Zombie Musher also does very little for its mana cost. Better creatures include Abominable Treefolk, Priest of the Haunted Edge, and Frost Augur

Hey, well done with such a low budget, The Undead Forest is a cool deck name. Interesting deck idea for your first Commander deck with Muldrotha, but why snow? Weathered Runestone completely shuts down Muldrotha.

Marit Lage's Slumber, Jorn, God of Winter  ^Flip, Priest of the Haunted Edge, Blood on the Snow, Ice-Fang Coatl these are some reasons to play snow with Muldrotha. Iceberg Cancrix can repeatable self-mill and that's a good effect with Muldrotha. Pilfering Hawk can be repeatable loot which gets cards into your graveyard. Unfortunately, this isn't many cards.

Draugr Necromancer is a good card with snow, but it doesn't have much interaction with Muldrotha. Dead of Winter is another good card with snow, but Muldrotha is not a snow creature. Narfi, Betrayer King is fine, able to reanimate itself with snow, but he's support for snow not really a reason to play snow.

Some advice to consider is to play nonsnow cards that can put snow-covered permanents (lands) onto the battlefield to meet the snow requirement for snow cards without playing lots of unnecessary snow creatures. The best way to get snow permanents is with snow-covered lands. You really don't need lots of other subpar snow creatures here.

• Frostweb Spider
• Saddled Rimestag
• Zombie Musher
• Frostpeak Yeti
• Grim Draugr
• Rimebound Dead
• Boreal Centaur
• Hailstorm Valkyrie
• Frost Raptor
• Avalanche Caller
• Boreal Outrider
• Frost Augur

All these creatures could be cut to improve your deck.

Instead of playing lots of lesser snow creatures, play just the better snow creatures here?

• Ascendant Spirit
• Iceberg Cancrix
• Ice-Fang Coatl
• Pilfering Hawk
• Priest of the Haunted Edge
• Jorn, God of Winter  ^Flip
• Ohran Viper
• Abominable Treefolk
• Draugr Necromancer
• Icebreaker Kraken

Use other deck slots for cards that can search for and get snow-covered lands onto the battlefield?

• Sakura-Tribe Elder
• Font of Fertility
• Wayfarer's Bauble
• Diligent Farmhand
• Dawntreader Elk
• Springbloom Druid
• Binding the Old Gods
• Khalni Heart Expedition
• Evolving Wilds
• Terramorphic Expanse

Consider adding some spells that are not permanents that can search for and put snow-covered lands onto the battlefield?

• Harrow
• Into the North: can get a snow-covered dual land.

Cards that can get snow-covered lands into your hand as well as get cards into your graveyard can be helpful with Muldrotha.

• Satyr Wayfinder
• Vessel of Nascency
• Grisly Salvage

Could also add some snow mana rocks and mana dorks?

• Arcum's Astrolabe
• Replicating Ring
• Rime Tender
• Sculptor of Winter

Land ramp for snow-covered lands and mana from mana rocks is more ramp which also helps to cast 6 mana Muldrotha as well as having more mana to cast permanents from your graveyard when you control Muldrotha.

Example of a budget more refined creature base with snow.

• Ascendant Spirit
• Diligent Farmhand
• Dawntreader Elk
• Iceberg Cancrix
• Ice-Fang Coatl
• Lotus Cobra
• Pilfering Hawk
• Priest of the Haunted Edge
• Rime Tender
• Sakura-Tribe Elder
• Satyr Wayfinder
• Sculptor of Winter
• Jorn, God of Winter  ^Flip
• Ohran Viper
• Springbloom Druid
• Abominable Treefolk
• Draugr Necromancer
• Icebreaker Kraken

Good luck with your deck.
