My daughter Hannah, 4, and I came up with this recipe on Christmas Eve when she wanted to make treats for Santa. Building a snowman is lots of fun, but coating one in candy is even cooler! Ingredients:
9 pieces candy corn |
1/2 to 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter |
34 round butter-flavored crackers |
12 ounces white candy coating, coarsely chopped |
34 miniature chocolate chips |
34 m&m's® brand chocolate candies |
licorice pieces or assorted colors of decorating gel |
Directions:
1. Remove yellow ends from candy corn. Cut each candy in half lengthwise; set aside.
2. Spread peanut butter over half of the crackers; top with remaining crackers to make sandwiches.
3. In a microwave, melt candy coating; stir until smooth. Dip sandwiches in chocolate; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper.
4. Immediately position chocolate chips for eyes and mouths and add a reserved candy corn half for nose. For earmuffs, place an M&M on either side of face, connected with a piece of licorice or a strip of decorating gel. Let stand for 30 minutes or until set. Yield: 17 servings.
