Ok y’all, I know that Christmas is over, but there’s still time to eke out a little holiday spirit. After running around like chickens with our heads cut off trying to finish our pre- and post-holiday activities, you probably don’t want to spend 4 1/2 hours baking these sugar cookies. But surely you have an extra two minutes to make these cute little Marshmallow Snowmen? Do this with your kids as you pack away the decorations until next year, as a final, tasty, easy hurrah to send off the season. I bet you will get a smile outta someone!
Read on for instructions.Marchmallow Snowmen
3 large marshmallows
3 toothpicks
Edible black and orange markers (you can find them at the craft store) or black and orange tube writing frosting
2 thin pretzel sticks
1 sheet rolled fruit snack (such as a fruit roll up) cut into a 1/4-1/2 inch long strips
1 Hershey’s Kiss
1. Place a toothpick in the center of one marshmallow. Place a marshmallow on the top of that toothpick. Place a second toothpick through the center of the second marshmallow. Place the 3rd marshmallow on top of the second.
2. Using the markers or the frosting, draw on two black eyes, three black buttons and a mouth. Using the orange marker or frosting draw on a nose.
3. Place the pretzels in sides of the middle marshmallow for the arms. Drape the Fruit Roll up around the neck and arms of the snowman for a “scarf” Place the 3rd toothpick through the top marshmallow and poke the Hershey Kiss on top to serve as his hat.
