Reindeer Poop
8 C. corn Chex cereal
1-2 C. puffed rice cereal
6 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 C. peanut butter
2 Tbl. butter or margarine (don't use "spread")
1/2 tsp. vanilla
2 C. powdered sugar
Place the cereal in a large heat-proof pan.
In a microwavable dish, melt the chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter. (Heat for 1 minute on high, stir and heat another 30 seconds or until melted.)
Stir vanilla into chocolate mixture.
Pour chocolate over cereal and stir until well coated.
Pour cereal mixture on waxed paper and allow to cool slightly. Break up any big chunks.
Doing 1/4 at at time, place powdered sugar in a large zip-lock bag and shake the chocolate-covered cereal in the bag until all pieces are well-coated. Pour into a cake pan or other large pan and refrigerate until hard.
To make "Snowman Poop", add 2 C. miniature marshmallows to the finished snack mix.
To make "Yule tree Poop", add 1 C. chow mein noodles to the finished snack mix.
How about Cake balls? Sounds dirty, but they are yummy..I swear! lol
All you have to do is:
1 (18.25-ounce) boxed cake mix plus ingredients called for on box
1 (16-ounce) can prepared frosting
White Chocolate for melting/coating (you can get it at Michaels).
To Make:
1. Prepare the cake mix according to package directions using any of the recommended pan sizes. When cake is done, crumble while warm into a large bowl, and stir in the frosting until well blended.
2. Melt chocolate coating in a glass bowl in the microwave, or in a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth.
3. Use a melon baller or small scoop to form balls of the chocolate cake mixture. Dip the balls in chocolate using a toothpick or fork to hold them. Place on waxed paper to set.
*Use food coloring to color the dipping, White Chocolate, red or green and decorate with sprinkles.

i was just watching the food network and this woman was making "wreaths" out of rice crispies, marshmallows, and green food dye. then she molded them into the shape of a wreath
my thoughts were that you could put red M&Ms on said "wreaths" to make it look like berries
haha i wanna try this and i don't even celebrate Christmas
on truffles use icing sugar and water to make a paste.
use those lolly mint leaves and jaffas and stick them on so you have mini christmas puddings
