Macaroni Made ~ Snowman on a Stick

By Sara McGill, South Tampa Publisher Mom February 23, 2012

In honor of the snow we didn't have, me and my girls made snowmen on a stick snacks.

Here's what you need:

  • Large white marshmallows
  • Fruit roll ups or something like it
  • Mini chocolate chips or other candy for eyes and nose
  • Thin pretzel sticks
  • Chocolate Kisses, mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Rolos (for hat)
  • White candy melts (find them at craft stores like Michael's or JoAnn's)
  • Lollipop or popsicle dowels from craft store

Here's what you do:

Stick three marshmallows on lollipop dowel but don't let the top one poke through.

Cut Fruit Roll Up into long, thin strip to wrap around "snowman's" neck.

In microwave safe bowl, melt candy melts according to package directions. Spoon into a plastic baggie and cut a tiny hole in one corner.

Use melted candy like "glue" for the eyes, nose, hat and scarf if needed.

Poke pretzels in for arms and use candy melt "glue" to secure them. Let melted candy set and you're ready to eat!
