Whiteley Creek Homestead

This snowman is made from homemade marshmallows. The recipe I used makes enough marshmallows to float in hot chocolate, to make a pan of Rice Krispie Bars, and even this snowman with a hat made from a thin mint pattie topped off with a junior mint, a fruit leather scarf, a wedge cut from a candy orange slice for a nose, and thin pretzels for arms. For the body I used three graduated circle cookie cutters. The largest size I found in my cookie cutter collection and the two smaller sizes are Wilton cutters that I purchased at Michael's Crafts. I used the middle size of the three cutters in the package for an authentic marshmallow shape, but any shape can be used.
