With the Christmas tree and house completely decorated, it’s that time of year for our traditional Snowman Soup! My kids love this delicious recipe, it warms their hearts and gets them super excited for the holiday season…
My Snowman Soup recipe is fantastic for those cold winter nights and makes a wonderful Christmas gift as well! Making this delicious gift is as easy as one, two, three! Wrap up hot chocolate mix, marshmallows, and chocolates, and we add a sweet little poem to wrap it all up! You can give it as a gift in a coffee mug, in a gift basket, or hang it on the tree with a candy cane as a hook and best of all, it’s easy enough for children to make.
Happy Holidays!

Snowman Soup Poem #1
When the weather outside is frightful,
Snowman Soup can be delightful.
May it warm your spirit and your soul.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
When you feel a chill or are saying “brrr,”
Use the candy cane stick to stir.
Add hot water and sip it slow.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
Snowman Soup Poem #2
Was told that you’ve been good this year –
Always glad to hear it!
With freezing weather drawing near,
You’ll need to warm the spirit.
So here’s a little Snowman Soup,
Complete with stirring stick.
Just add hot water, sip it slow.
It’s sure to do the trick!
