Shreddies Inukshuks

My son is fascinated with Inukshuks!  He gets so excited when we see them along the highway on top of rock cuts!  He is going to have so much fun making and eating these Shreddies Inukshuks!

PREP TIME: 30 min.
TOTAL TIME: 30 min.
MAKES: 1, 24 Shreddies and approx. 2 Tbsp. chocolate icing (32 g)

INGREDIENTS

Post Shreddies Cereal
Prepared chocolate icing
Fruit leather or pretzel sticks

DIRECTIONS

SELECT 24 whole Shreddies for each Inukshuk.

STACK 6 Shreddies for each leg, using a dab of chocolate icing in between to hold the stacks. Stand legs about 1/2-inch apart.

STACK 5 Shreddies, using a dab of chocolate icing in between; centre body over top of both legs.

STACK 3 Shreddies over a piece of fruit leather (approx. 2-inches long x 1/2-inch wide) using icing to stick Shreddies to fruit leather to make arms. If desired, instead of fruit leather, use 2 straight pretzel sticks to support Shreddies. Attach arms to body using icing.

STACK remaining 4 Shreddies to form head, using icing to hold the Shreddies together.

REPEAT to make desired number of Inukshuks.


TIPS & SUGGESTIONS
