Crock-Pot Snowman Poop

The name of this recipe – Crock-Pot Snowman Poop is kind of silly. But really it is just a take on a classic cake mix puppy chow recipe. But instead of using Chex cereal we used Honey Nut Cheerios cereal. The kids love this as a snack and they will get a giggle out of the funny name for sure!

Crock-Pot Snowman Poop

Slow Cooker Snowman Poop

I was scrounging around in my pantry looking for an easy snack that I could whip up with the kids. I spotted a box of Honey Nut Cheerios cereal and then the idea hit me! Crock-Pot Snowman Poop! The minute I uttered the words my kids were in fits giggling at the name and the idea that mom was going to make them “poop” to eat as a snack.

What is it with the word “poop” and kids that just sends them over the edge?

I will never know!

Basically this is a Cake Mix Puppy Chow recipe that would regularly be made with Chex cereal. But instead uses Cheerios for the “poop” shape.

…giggles

The kids can definitely help make this one, and in fact I think they will insist on it.

It makes a great little snack or gift for the holidays. You could even package it up for a class party and get a whole classroom with the giggles at the idea of eating snowman poop.

The teacher might hate you!

Happy holidays!

    I made the Snowman Poop recipe exactly as it is written. I don’t like to modify recipes the first time I try them. Flavorwise it turned out very good, sweet and crunchy. I’m planning to make it again soon and when I do I’m going to make the following changes. I’m going to increase the almond bark to 10 ounces because I like thick coatings. That’s a personal preference. I’m also going to only use 3/4 of a box of Funfetti cake mix because there was a lot left over that didn’t stick to this batch. I was disappointed that most of the sprinkles from the cake mix ended up in the left over mix that didn’t stick to the cereal, but it gave me an idea–edible glitter! That will look really cool.

    I don’t have two weeks, just one, could that be okay?

      Hi Sean, the recipe says that it can be stored for up to two weeks. Meaning, that you it will be fresh for two weeks if stored in an airtight container or bag. You do not have to store it that long. And it may loose some of it’s freshness if stored longer.

    I made this using Kix Cereal, because the cake mix and the white chocolate are plenty sweet. The grandsons will love this.
    Next time I will use A LOT more white chocolate chips. I accidentally poured all 11oz of the chips in the hot crockpot, but glad I did. In my opinion the cereal needs coated better otherwise it’s only dusty with the cake mix.
    I also found all of the confetti fel to the bottom of the crock. So next time I plan to add red and green sprinkles to the melted chocolate before adding the cake mix.

    We’ve all heard that raw cake mix can contain salmonella. Are we cooking the mix in the crock pot long enough to heat it up and make it safe to eat?

    Reply
    • Heidi says

      January 14, 2019 at 4:43 PM

      No the cake mix is not cooked. We have made this recipe several times and have never had an issue with salmonella. But of course if that is something that you worry about you can skip this recipe or perhaps use powdered sugar instead. But then it won’t be cake mix flavored.

      Additionally I suppose you could spread the cake mix out on a cookie sheet and bake it to kill off any germs.

        It’s the eggs that are used when en making cakes that cause salmonella. This recipe has nothing in it that would cause salmonella.

      You only have to worry about salmonella if you’re cooking by the recipe..that contains eggs…

    Have never heard that dry cake mix may have salmonella. It is the prepared raw batter that is worrisome due to the eggs added.

      Flour is raw and can contain harmful bacteria. The eggs are not the concern in raw batter.

      Hi Jean, it should be okay as long as you package it up as airtight as you can. The risk is the cereal going stale. But it should be okay to ship to Canada!

    I know I’m not the only one having this opinion because friends and family have said the same thing and is not just directed to your recipe BUT – who wants to eat POOP?!?! The Title to all the recipes referring to eating poop is not cute it’s disgusting. My grandkids don’t want me to make anything with that in the title. Snowman mini doughnuts or funfetti minis would be a good for a start. I know lots of people are going to come back with telling me to get over it. BUt do you really find it appetizing. But it’s still a fun recipe.

      Hey Steph, I understand that some may not find the title funny. However, my kids think it is hilarious and thus the title of the recipe. You can call it whatever you want though, no judgement here.

    My question is why the crockpot when your just using it to melt the bark can’t you do that in a large pot in a much quicker amount of time?

      You definitely could. Some people only have access to a crockpot though, such as people who travel a lot and live out of hotels, or maybe their kitchen is being renovated and they don’t have a stove or a microwave…anyway, it’s nice to have the crockpot as an option!
