| Snowman Pretzel Treats |
We live in part of the country that was quite snowy today. We were not in the blizzard area, but still got close to 6 inches of snow, and our roads are a mess. Since we were not really up to going outside in the cold to make a snowman, I decided to make a few snowmen treats in the kitchen.

To make the snowmen, I started with round pretzels.

I first melted a bag of white baking chips in the microwave using the 30 second method. One way I tried was to dip each of the pretzels in the melted candy until covered.

I then placed the together on wax paper touching each other so they would stick together. Once in placed I filled in the rest of the pretzel with melted chocolate.

I also tried to just fill in the snowmen without dipping them first. That worked out okay, but some of the pretzel was showing. I used a food brush and added some chocolate on the bare spots. Both ways to make the snowmen works okay, but I found dipping the pretzel was a bit easier.

Before the snowmen dried, I added eyes and buttons using mini chips. The scarves are Fruit by the Foot cut into pieces about one inch long. I was not sure what to do with the nose. I ended up adding them on with orange gel once the chocolate hardened.

Once the chocolate has hardened, break off any excess as needed. These snowmen are easy to make and are the perfect snow day snack.
