I was remembering the last time we made snowmen with the children. We made two snowmen. The first snowman held with two sticks as arms, a toy sword. The second snowman was in front of the first snowman, except his head was on the ground. Then we used red Kool-Aid to color the snow. My children and husband was very proud of their killer snowmen. Thankfully the neighbor got a kick out of the snowmen too.

This memory leads me to a good craft food idea for a Halloween displays.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

Popped Pop Corn
1 large bag of Caramel
Large pretzels
Red Food Coloring
Grease Cooking Pot
Bag of Licorice
New Small Paint brush

Step 1

Cut the Licorice into stick shapes, eye, noise and mouths. For each snowman will need 2 arms, noise, mouth, and 2 eyes. Everyother snowman will need a sword.
Step 2

Melt 3/4th of the caramel in a well grease cooking pot. Contiually stir the caramel in the pot over medium low heat until melted.

When the caramel is all melt turn the heat on low.
Step 3

Drizzle some caramel over the popped popcorn and roll into three different size balls. Assembly the popcorn balls like the snowmen; large, medium, and small. Except every other snowman leave the head off to the side.
Step 4

Drip a dot of caramel on the pretzel where you want the snowman parts and people to go.
Step 5

While the popcorn snowman is still sticky; attach the licorice pieces to the snowman.
Step 6

Melt the remaining 1/4th of the caramel. Add red food coloring to the melted caramel to give it a red tint.
Step 7

With the small paint brush, brush the red tinted caramel on the top of the snowman without the head and on the ground around the head.
