Ingredients

  • 1 package (16 oz) vanilla-flavored candy coating (almond bark)
  • 1 package (1 lb) peanut-shaped peanut butter-filled sandwich cookies
  • 96 miniature semisweet chocolate chips (about 1 tablespoon)
  • Assorted candies, pretzel sticks and fruit roll snacks

Steps

  • 1
    Line cookie sheets with waxed paper. Place 1/4 of candy coating in small microwavable bowl. Microwave on High 30 seconds. Stir; continue to microwave in 15-second increments until coating can be stirred smooth.
  • 2
    Dip each side of 8 cookies into candy coating to coat; place on cookie sheets. Add chocolate chips for eyes.
  • 3
    Repeat with remaining candy coating and cookies. Decorate as desired with assorted candies. Let cookies stand at room temperature for 30 minutes or until coating is set.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Use red cinnamon candies or pieces of fruit roll snacks instead of chocolate chips for the snowmen's mouths.
  • tip 2
    To keep melted candy coating liquid, place the bowl of candy coating in a larger bowl containing hot water.
  • tip 3
    Be creative! With a variety of candies and pretzels you can make sure no two snowmen look alike.
