Winter Treats

Hi Everyone! Are you enjoying this cold weather or hating it? It seems everyone around the world is dealing with COLD COLD weather so I figured why not make it fun for the kiddos! So yesterday I decided to make them some WINTER TREATS for them to enjoy. I made them some FRIED DONUT SNOWBALLS and MELTED SNOWMAN HOT COCOA! Both recipes are so easy to make.

Ingredients for FRIED DONUT SNOWBALLS:

• Powder Sugar
• Biscuit Dough

First take the biscuit dough and cut the premade circles in half. Then roll each piece into little balls.

Put about a half inch of oil in a pan and let the oil heat up. Get the oil hot but not too hot because you don't want the outside to be cooked and the inside still be doughy. Put the balls of dough in the oil when the oil is hot and brown the dough on both sides. The donuts cook fast so keep an eye on them.

Set up a plate with a napkin, a bowl filled with powder sugar, and another bowl. When the donuts are done frying put them on the plate with the napkin first to drain out the excess oil off then roll the donut in the powder sugar.

And that is it for the FRIED DONUT SNOWBALLS.

Ingredients for MELTED SNOWMAN HOT COCOA:

• Chocolate Syrup or Hot Cocoa
• Milk
• Big Marshmallows
• Marshmallow Cream
• Food Markers

While you are heating up the CHOCOLATE MILK or HOT COCOA use the food markers to draw a SNOWMAN face on the BIG MARSHMALLOWS. 

Once the CHOCOLATE MILK or the HOT COCOA is warm up put some MARSHMALLOW CREAM on top of it and then put the drawn SNOWMAN face MARSHMALLOW on top of the cream. Then you have a MELTED SNOWMAN HOT COCOA.

This was a cute and delicious treat for my girls to warm them up from this cold weather. What are some of your favorite WINTER TREATS for your kiddos?
