    Here's my snowman soup for my boys and OH (and one for me otherwise I will be left out!). I've got a mug each for them to go with it. I'm not sure whether to give it to them on Xmas Eve or Xmas Day? Xmas Eve I think with the other bits and bobs I've got/doing for the boys. I used 2 qunatities of instant hot chocolate (Cadburys), sprinkling of chocolate chips and enough marshmallows for 2 mugs.

    Thanks Rusty :D I followed advice on one of the websites showing how to do snowman soup and put the hot chocolate powder in a bag, sealed it up (I twisted bag and stuck with selotape), cut rest of cello bag away, put inside another bag and added the chocolate chips and marshmallows. It all sits together well, you just use twice as many bags this way :p I'm going to make up a couple more to add to pressies as have some stuff left over.

    I often see people talking about snowman soup but cant find a post with what it is exactly, and how to do it etc. I came across a lovely one a few years back but was american and had things like hershy kisses etc. Could someone point me in the right direction please?

    Thank you!
