A Groundhog Day treat

Break up the dreary days of winter by celebrating a fun and under-appreciated holiday, Groundhog Day. Start Feb. 2 off right by making these treats with your family and enjoying them while you eagerly await the groundhog's prediction.

Groundhog Day Dessert

What you will need for each person:

1 snack-size pudding cup

2 tablespoons graham cracker or chocolate cookie crumbs

1 donut hole

2 Cheerios

3 chocolate chips

1 teaspoon coconut flakes (optional)

Putting it together:

Open the pudding cup and remove 1 teaspoon of pudding to be used for "glue." Smooth out the remaining pudding in the cup.

Sprinkle crumbs on top of the pudding cup.

Make a donut hole groundhog by attaching the Cheerios to the top of the donut hole with a small amount of the reserved pudding. These are his ears. Next, attach the chocolate chips to the front of the donut hole for eyes and a nose. Place the groundhog in the center of the pudding cup.

For a snowy effect, sprinkle coconut flakes around the base of the groundhog.
