Pretzel Snowman

This is pretty self explanatory but here is the recipe

1 bag of white chocolate chips

1 bag of mini chocolate chips

fruit roll up

bag of gummy savors

Dots

Orange frosting

Bag of pretzel sticks

melt white chocolate in microwave for one minute, take out and stir with wooden spoon, place back in microwave for 30sec

dip pretzels in white chocolate and spread with plastic spoon or knife down the pretzel

place on wax paper and add mini chocolate chips as the eyes, nose and buttons and orange frosting as the nose or you can chop up an orange dot and use that.

place in fridge for 2 min to cool

then tie on fruit roll up as scarf and add gummy(stretch over top of pretzel) and dot as the hat. I used a little bit of frosting to get the gummy to stick on top.
