Snow People

There is no link for this. I cut it out of a magazine, but it originally came from Kraft foods. Their website is www.kraftfoods.com. I don't know the magazine I got it out of.

1/4 c. butter or margarine

1 pkg. jet-puffed marshmallows (6 cups)

1 pkg. Fruity Pebbles or Cocoa Pebbles (about 8 1/2 cups)

Microwave butter in 4 quart microwavable bowl on high 45 seconds or until melted. Add marshmallows; toss to coat. Microwave 1-1/2 minutes or until marshmallows are completely melted, stirring after 45 sec. Stir in cereal. Mix well.

Shape 1 c. of cereal mixture into a ball, using wet or greased hands. Repeat, mixing a total of 6 large balls. Shape remaining mixture into 6 smaller balls, using about 1/2 c. of mixture for each ball.

Place small ball on top of large ball to make a snow person. Gently press balls together to secure. Decorate as desired. Makes 12 servings, 1/2 snow person each.

It looks like you can use licorice, fruit roll-ups and other candy to decorate them.

Update: After trying this project, we were not very successful. The snow people would not hold their shape as you can tell from the picture. We had fun anyway.
