Snowman Hot Chocolate Spoon With Licorice Scarf

Due to negative temperatures, the kids recently had two days off of school. The only problem with that snow day is that the kids were not able to go play in the snow! Now, that is frustrating. All that snow, and a polar vortex – not a good combination, in any way. So…we made snowmen “inside”! And, we still had our snow day hot cocoa to go with these cute Snowman Chocolate Spoons! Here’s what we did to make these cuties!:

  • First off, melt the chocolate according to package directions, and dip your spoons into the melted chocolate

  • While you are waiting you can get your sprinkles ready – My suggestion is to pour a small amount into a little bowl, especially if you are working with kids. If this baby tips over…oh boy! I also like to use the lid as a little bowl – it works!
