Simple Snowman Snack

Christmas is a great time for fun snacks! Here is a quick and simply snowman snack that even the kiddos can help make:)
*A FEW HELPFUL TIPS*
You can put the marshmallows either way shown above, but I found that the marsmallows tend to spin out of place if you put them on like the one in the middle.
Dip all three marshmallows in melted candy coating and let the excess drip off before you start to decorate.
Put the Twizzlers in the freezer rolled up in the shapes needed to make the smile and the top of the earmuffs. This helps them stay curved while the candy coating dries.

  18. Very cute! We do a similar one, except our snowman has a different top. We put a Keebler fudge stiped cookie onto the top marshmellow (since there's a hole in the middle), then attach a 4th marshmellow to the cookie with melted chocolate. I don't know how clear that direction was, :-) but it ends up looking like a top hat. Thanks for sharing, I'd love to try it with the M&Ms! :-)
