We ended up using both the traditional Rice Krispies and Cocoa Krispies for this recipe. We also used gumdrops, icing, pretzels, and candy eyes to decorate our snowmen.

How to make Snowman Rice Krispie Treats

Since we made Snowman Rice Krispie Treat, we took the mixture directly from the pan and formed them into balls for snowmen.

Then, we used our frosting as glue to add the decorations. If we make this again, we will use brown frosting. The red frosting made the snowmen look a little scary (in my opinion). No one seemed to care, because we all gobbled them up pretty quickly!

We also had some fun decorating the kids’ noses with frosting. 🙂
