    I've heard that no one can get into that blog. It's odd. You can try to navigate there yourself from my profile page, but until then, here is the snowmen recipe:

    Peanut Butter Snowmen

    Centers:
    1/2 cup butter
    1/2 cup peanut butter (crunchy or creamy)
    1 cup confectioners' sugar
    1 cup graham cracker crumbs

    Roll mixture into balls (small ball for head, larger for body). Place a small ball on top of a large ball and chill.

    Melt White Almond bark in Microwave, as directed. Dip snowmen centers in almond bark and place on waxed paper. When dry, decorate.

    To decorate:
    HATS:
    In small bowl, melt small amount of red candy coating wafers as directed in Microwave. Dip snowmen heads in red chocolate and pull straight up to make the peak of the Santa hat.

    FACE and ARMS:
    With chocolate candy coating (preferred because it is thinner thanchocolate chips) and a tooth pick, place dots for eyes and mouth. Paint" on the arms.

    Hey all,

    I found a picture of the Easter bunnies that I made with this same recipe. The ears are dipped, dried craisins.

    Enjoy!
