In June, we will be joining him, after our house sells and the kids finish out their school year. Daddy has been sending plenty of videos and photos of him enjoying the winter wonderland up north while we enjoy mild temperature tank top weather here in the desert. My sweet four year old daughter keeps asking me when it will snow here. She just doesn&#8217;t quite understand why her daddy gets to enjoy it and she doesn&#8217;t. Since food is the medium I use to love on my family, I went to work bringing a little snow magic to her right from our kitchen with this fun Snowman Poop recipe.<\/p>\n<p>I start, I added two bags of white chocolate chips to my slow cooker. I stirred the chocolate every ten minutes until it was completely smooth and melted through (it took me roughly 20 minutes).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/snowman-poop172.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/snowman-poop174.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>I added in a whole bunch of Cheerios and stirred it all together until it was coated evenly.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/snowman-poop175.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>And then I added a whole box of rainbow chip cake mix and stirred it all to coat.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/snowman-poop176.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>I transferred the mixture onto my counter, lined with parchment paper, and spread it all out to dry.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/snowman-poop179.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>I let it cool for about an hour and then we enjoyed eating plenty of the super sweet Snowman Poop treat. The cake mix gives it a fluffy snow texture and the white chocolate holds it all together for a fun little treat inspired by the white winter coating. While the treat didn&#8217;t satisfy my daughter&#8217;s snow dreams completely, it certainly added a little fun to her desert afternoon.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/snowman-poop178.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/snowman-poop177.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><a target=\"_self\" title=\"Print this recipe\" href=\"void(0);\">Print<\/a><\/div>\n<div> <a target=\"_self\" href=\"http:\/\/yummly.com\/\">Yum<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div>Snowman Poop, a Yummy Winter Treat<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n      <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Ingredients<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2 (12 ounce) bags white chocolate chips\n<\/li>\n<li>12 cups Cheerio cereal\n<\/li>\n<li>1 box rainbow chip cake mix<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Instructions<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Add white chocolate chips to slow cooker and cook over high, stirring every ten minutes until completely melted (this took me about 25 minutes).\n<\/li>\n<li>Add cereal and stir to combine with white chocolate.\n<\/li>\n<li>Add box of cake mix, a little at a time, stirring in between to incorporate completely into mixture.\n<\/li>\n<li>Spread cereal mixture out over parchment paper to cool.\n<\/li>\n<li>Once cereal has completely cooled, enjoy!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div>Schema\/Recipe SEO Data Markup by <a target=\"_self\" title=\"Yummly Rich Recipes\" href=\"http:\/\/plugin.yummly.com\/\">Yummly Rich Recipes<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div>0.1<\/div>\n<p><a target=\"_self\" href=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/2018\/01\/04\/snowman-poop-a-yummy-winter-treat\/\" title=\"Permalink to Recipe\">http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/2018\/01\/04\/snowman-poop-a-yummy-winter-treat\/<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>For recipes like this one, be sure to <a target=\"_self\" href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/bwYrzn\">subscribe to the monthly Our Holly Days newsletter<\/a> where I share updates, my favorite kitchen gadgets, upcoming recipes, and more.<\/h3>\n<p>The post <a target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/2018\/01\/04\/snowman-poop-a-yummy-winter-treat\/\">Snowman Poop, a Yummy Winter Treat<\/a> appeared first on <a target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/\">Our Holly Days<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Source:: <a href=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/2018\/01\/04\/snowman-poop-a-yummy-winter-treat\/\" target=\"_self\" title=\"Snowman Poop, a Yummy Winter Treat\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Holly Sosa Currently, my husband is in Northern Michigan working at his new job in a cement plant while my kiddos and myself hold down the front here in the Southern California High Desert.
