Mix the peanut butter, Nutella, butter and powdered sugar in a bowl.Snowy Chocolate Pinecones

Take a pretzel rod and mold some of the mixture around it, forming a slight cone shape.

Hold it steady by using the tip of the pretzel as a handle, and start inserting pieces of cereal into the mixture in a symmetrical pattern around the stick. Add more cereal pieces, staggering them as you move upward until you get near the top.

If the pine cone is getting too tall, cut off the top of the pretzel and add more of the mixture to mold over the top so none of the broken pretzel is showing.

Break apart cereal pieces to create smaller scales near the top.

For a “snowy” effect, dust each pine cone with powdered sugar.  Enjoy!

    These are just adorable and look just like snowy pinecones! They look pretty yummy, too! I’ll have to try these this Christmas.

    How many does this recipe make? Should I double it for 10 kids?
