Ingredients

• 6 pieces Large marshmallows
• 3 pieces Mini marshmallows
• 6 pieces Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 6 pieces Candy-coated chocolate buttons (e.g., M&Ms)
• 6 pieces Pretzel sticks
• 3 pieces Orange candy (such as a candy corn or orange Tic Tac)
• 1 tube each Edible gel icing (black and red)
• 3 pieces Toothpicks

Directions

Step 1

Start by laying out your ingredients and tools on a clean work surface.

Step 2

To build the body of the snowman, stack two large marshmallows vertically and secure them together using a toothpick. Make sure the marshmallows are aligned properly.

Step 3

For the snowman's head, place a third large marshmallow on top of the stack and secure it with the same toothpick. Push the toothpick in so it’s not visible but holds the marshmallows together.

Step 4

Break the pretzel sticks in half to create the arms. Insert one half of a pretzel stick on each side of the middle marshmallow as arms.

Step 5

Place a mini marshmallow on top of the snowman’s head to act as a hat or decorative touch. Use a dab of gel icing to secure it if needed.

Step 6

Add the snowman’s face by using black gel icing to create two eyes and a smiling mouth on the top marshmallow. Use the orange candy as the nose by pressing it gently into the marshmallow.

Step 7

Attach three candy-coated chocolate buttons vertically down the middle marshmallow for the buttons. Use a small dab of gel icing to make them stick in place if necessary.

Step 8

For added detail, pipe a small red scarf around the neck area using the red gel icing.

Step 9

Repeat the steps to create two more Frosty the Snowman treats.

Step 10

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a day. Enjoy your whimsical Frosty the Snowman creations!
