Ingredients
10 cups of popped Snowman Kisses® popcorn kernels
Clear plastic cups (8 oz or 10 oz size works best)
Edible black pearl sprinkles or mini chocolate chips for eyes + smile
Small orange candy triangles (like Starburst cut into pieces, or candy melts) for noses
Light blue ribbon, cut into 10-inch strips, or blue crepe paper strips for the scarves
A bit of frosting or melted white chocolate, or edible glue to “stick” the faces onto the cups
Directions
blank
Make a big batch of Snowman Kisses® kernels using your preferred method: stovetop, air popper, or microwave popcorn popper. If you need directions for popping your kernels, please see our popping guide here.
Once the popcorn is popped, let it cool slightly.

Tie a ribbon or crepe paper “scarf” around each cup and secure with a simple knot or bow.
You can add a small dab of chocolate, frosting or your edible glue to the cup, to keep the ribbon in place
blank
Dab a tiny bit of frosting or melted chocolate on the outside of the cup and press on sprinkles for eyes and smile.
Cut your orange candy into small triangles. Add another dab of frosting or melted chocolate (I’d use white chocolate for this), and press the candy triangle “carrot nose” onto the cup.
The noses can be small and skinny, or wide and fat. It’s totally your choice.

Scoop popped popcorn into each cup until mounded over the top.
At this point, you can sprinkle on seasonings or a pinch of salt (if you like). But plain is fine, because the popcorn is so tasty.

Arrange your snowman cups on a cake stand or tray, and watch them disappear faster than the real Frosty on a warm day.
