 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    4      tbsp          Unsalted butter
    4      c             Mini marshmallows
    9      c             Popped popcorn
      1/2  c             Confectioners' sugar
    1      tbsp          Milk
                         Gumdrops, cinnamon candies -- 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.)
