We used a spice cake recipe from Kelly's new REAL SIMPLE magazine. Good stuff. We baked the cakes in 3 different size muffin tins creating the big-to-small stacking effect (miniature, regular and jumbo muffins). Then we smothered the whole thing in white frosting (tub icing from America). Tori and I had bought some Sugar Free Reese's PB cups while we were in Texas and managed to get them back here and into our freezer before they melted...they make a great top hat for Frosty. The rest of the family loves candy corns (which Kelly picked up when she was in Texas recently)...although I don't, they make perfect noses for our little snowmen. The pretzels came from here and make for good praisin' snowmen! HA! Tori loves to dust the whole thing with a thick blanket of "snow" (powdered sugar through a hand sifter). It was a lot of fun to make this with the kids! -Randy
My husband, Randy, and I have four wonderful kids:
Tori (9), Timothy (5), Jonathan (3), Lael (3)!
We were church-planting missionaries, serving in Benin, West Africa from 1999 until July 2007. We are now back in Texas, learning to live in the good ol' USA! It's very challenging, yet we are so thrilled to be near our family & friends!!
