INGREDIENTS FOR SNOWMEN
1/2 cup Wilton white chocolate melts
3-4 strings black licorice (cut into eight 4 inch strips)
8 Orange sprees
16 brown M&M’s
16 gummy life savers
Wilton black icing gel
HOW TO ASSEMBLE THE SNOWMEN
1. Using a circle cookie cutter, cut out 8 snowman faces from your pan of cooled Rice Krispies.
2. In a microwave safe bowl, melt the Wilton chips for 40 seconds. Stir until melted.
3. Spread a thin layer of the melted white chocolate on top of each round Rice Krispies treat. (Save any extra white chocolate for the assembly process).
4. Immediately firmly press a licorice strand onto the top of each snowman to resemble the top of ear muffs.
5. If the white chocolate on top of the Rice Krispies treats has hardened, you may have to microwave your remaining white chocolate for an additional 10-15 seconds.
6. For each snowman, dip one side of 2 lifesavers into the chocolate and place on the snowman to resemble the ear muffs.
7. Dip one side of 2 M&M’s into the chocolate and place on each snowman for the eyes.
8. Dip each candy Spree into the melted chocolate and press firmly into each snowman for the nose.
9. Using a Wilton black icing tube, pipe small dots to form the mouths.
