  • When ready to make a cup of hot cocoa add 2 tablespoons of mix into a hot cup of milk.
  • Stir mix into the hot milk until mixed. Serve and enjoy.
  • To make floating snowmen- grab 3 large marshmallows and a pretzel stick, insert a pretzel in the middle of two (the body), add another pretzel stick and add the top (head) of the snowman to create the full body.
  • Now add arms and legs by inserting pretzels on the sides of the body and the bottom for the legs.
  • In a small dish add a tablespoon of chocolate syrup and a drop of black food gel. With a toothpick dip into the syrup and then apply the syrup to the snowman to create the eyes, mouth, and buttons.
  • Finally cut jelly beans in half and then trim the sides to create a triangle. Apply to create the nose and your snowman is now ready to float.
