Melted Snowman Bark

Everyone loves snowmen, but it’s ever so sad when they melt. Except of course when they melt into delicious melted snowman bark 😁

I sometimes find it difficult to make cakes and treats with children. The perfectionist in me always wants to take over!

But this sweet idea is one where even the perfectionists can let go – the messier the better! Once you’ve melted the chocolate, little ones can manage the rest.

You will need

white chocolate

Smarties or other chocolate beans

Milk chocolate chips

Matchsticks or similar

Method

Create a bain-marie by placing a glass bowl over a pan of boiling water
Break up the chocolate and place it in the glass bowl
Keep stirring the chocolate until it’s completely melted. Be careful not to let it burn
Line a tray or dish with greaseproof paper and pour over the melted chocolate
Place sweets onto the surface to create melted snowmen
Allow to harden and dust with lustre powder (optional)
Break into chunks

We had intended to give these melted snowmen as gifts but Dorothy has manhandled then so much that we may have to make another batch!
