Florida Snowman and Snowballs

Here's a cute dessert (and easy to make) for the holidays-- they look like snowballs with a touch of sand and sun!

Ingredients:
1/4 cup margarine, softened
1/2 (16-ounce) package confectioners' sugar
8 ounces vanilla wafers, finely crushed
3 ounces thawed frozen orange juice concentrate
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup flaked coconut

Directions:
Cream the margarine and confectioners' sugar in a mixer bowl until light. Add the cookie crumbs, orange juice concentrate and pecans and mix well. Chill for 1 hour. Shape into bite-sized balls with dampened hands. Roll in coconut, coating well. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Serves 48
Preparation Time: 15 minutes, plus chilling time

**For the snowman, we added a piece of chocolate for the top hat, a piece of candy corn for the nose and chocolate chips for the eyes and buttons. The sand is made out of left over crushed vanilla wafers.
