Popcorn Snowman
Why I Love This Recipe
Cute Idea I found On the web.
Ingredients You'll Need
4 Tbs.. unsalted butter
4 C. mini marshmallow
9 Cups popped popcorn (about 1 1/3 C. unpopped)
1/2 C. Powdered sugar
1 Tbs.. milk
Gumdrops, cinnamon candies, fruit leather,
jelly beans for garnish.
Directions
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
Add the marshmallows and cook,
stirring often, until melted and syrupy, about 5 minutes.
Place the popped popcorn in a
large, lightly greased shallow pan.
Pour the syrup over the popcorn, tossing to coat
evenly.
While still warm, form 6 balls about 5" in diameter from the coated popcorn for
bottom sections, giving the balls flat bases so the snowmen will stand.
Form 6 balls about
3 1/2" in diameter for the middle sections.
Then form 6 balls about 2" in diameter for the
top sections.
Stir the powdered sugar and milk together until smooth. Use the icing to stack three
popcorn balls of decreasing sizes into a snowman, then attach candies to decorate. Makes 6
snowmen.
Use fruit leather for the scarf, gumdrops for nose, elly beans for eyes, cinnamon candies
for mouth.
