• Mix the chocolate-hazelnut spread, peanut butter, and melted butter in a medium bowl.  Stir in the confectioners’ sugar until completely combined.
• Form one heaping tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture into a cone around a pretzel stick and place on a serving platter.  Press individual cereal pieces into the cone in upward-angled concentric circles, starting at the bottom and moving up and around the cone.  Repeat with the remaining peanut butter mixture, pretzel sticks and cereal.  Dust the cereal-covered cones with confectioners’ sugar.  Refrigerate until the cones remove easily from the platter, about 30 minutes.

Activity: Salt Dough Ornament

Supplies:

• Table salt
• All-purpose flour
• Water
• Parchment paper

Instructions:

• Measure out the flour and water.  Add the water and stir with a wooden spoon.  Keep stirring until the dough is mostly together and is hard to stir any longer.
• Knead a few times with hands to bring the dough together.  Place dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll out.
• Roll out, changing directions occasionally, until about one-fourth inch thick.  Stamp cookie cutters.
• Remove the dough around the shapes, then either transfer the whole piece of parchment paper to a cookie sheet or transfer just the shapes to a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
• Poke holes, so there is a place for a string to hang as ornaments.  Press in a hand to make a handprint, if desired.  Bake, let cool, and decorate.
