   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    4      tablespoons   Unsalted butter
    4      cups          Mini marshmallows
    9      cups          Popped popcorn
      1/2  cup           Confectioners' sugar
    1      tablespoon    Milk
                         Gumdrops, cinnamon candies
           s;             -- fruit leather, jelly
                         pretzels -- for garnish.
 
 In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the marshmallows and 
 cook, stirring often, until melted and syrupy, about 5 minutes. Place the 
 popped popcorn in a large lightly greased shallow pan. Pour the syrup over 
 the popcorn, tossing to coat evenly.
 While still warm, form 6 balls about 5″ in diameter from the coated popcorn 
 for the bottom sections, giving the balls flat bases so the snowmen will 
 stand. Form 6 balls about 3-1/2″ in diameter for the middle sections. Then 
 form 6 balls about 2″ in diameter for the top sections. Stir in the 
 confectioners' sugar and milk together until smooth. Use the icing to stack 
 three popcorn balls of decreasing sizes into a snowman, then attach candies 
 to decorate. (Gumdrops for hats, fruit leather for scarves, etc.)
