Snowman Soup

This is a great idea that one of my son’s teachers gave to the class before winter break. We’ve made it a few times now that the weather is colder (or at least cold for San Diego) and he loves it. Now I’m passing it along to you.

Ingredients:
1 package of hot chocolate mix
A few chocolate kisses (2-4 work well)
A small amount of mini marshmallows
1 Candy cane



Here are the instructions for making Snowman Soup:

When it's so cold that
you holler and whoop,
It's time to bring out
the Snowman Soup!

Pour the packet into a mug.
Add the snowballs too.
Then throw in the kisses
from the snowman to you!

Now add some hot water
And use the cane to stir it.
Sip slowly and soon you'll
feel the warm winter spirit!

Here’s one idea for quick, inexpensive packaging if you want to give it as a gift. Just print the “instructions” out with some clip art or rubber stamp an image on it and place everything in a zipper bag.



Quick, easy and yummy! I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
