INGREDIENTS
Jumbo marshmallows
Standard-size marshmallows
Mini marshmallows
Brown M&M’s
Candy eyeballs
Vanilla frosting OR melted white chocolate
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cut each jumbo marshmallow in half until you have the desired amount of polar bears you want to make. Then, cut each of the standard marshmallows in half and set aside.
2.Take a half of a jumbo marshmallow and place cut side-down on a cutting board or baking sheet. To make the nose, spread some frosting or melted white chocolate on the bottom (cut side-down) of a standard marshmallow and stick the standard marshmallow half towards the bottom-half of a jumbo marshmallow (see pictured).
3. Then spread more of the frosting or chocolate on the back of each candy eyeball and place above the nose section followed by the M&M nose.
4. For the ears, spread frosting or chocolate down the side of two mini marshmallows and stick on the top of each polar bear’s head and hold for 30 seconds.
5. Add, with Whipped Cream, to your favorite hot cocoa recipe! Cheers and enjoy!
