Ingredients

• Serving Size : 6
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 cups mini marshmallows
• 9 cups popped popcorn
• 1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
• 1 tablespoon milk
• gumdrops, cinnamon candies – fruit leather, jelly

3. Place the popped popcorn in a large lightly greased shallow pan.
4. Pour the syrup over the popcorn, tossing to coat evenly.
5. While still warm, form 6 balls about 5″ in diameter from the coated popcorn for the bottom sections, giving the balls flat bases so the snowmen will stand.
6. Form 6 balls about 3-1/2″ in diameter for the middle sections.
7. Then form 6 balls about 2″ in diameter for the top sections.
8. Stir in the confectioners’ sugar and milk together until smooth.

10. Gumdrops for hats, fruit leather for scarves, etc.
