Sno-ball Surprise

featured in Cooking with Mulder by Ebonbird
*********************************************
Ingredients:
1 Sno-ball or Easter Marshmallow Animal (Peeps)
1 Microwave oven
1 paper towel folded twice or one plate
(preferably
paper, because
this stuff sticks)
Procedure:
Step 1:
Separate 1 sno-ball from its
neighbor or separate on
marshmallow animal from its neighbor.
(These guys like to stick
close to their package mates. Be careful not to violate
their
boundaries or they don't pouf as nice.)
Step 2:
Transfer sno-ball/mallowmal to paper
towel or plate.
Step 3:
Place in microwave oven.
Step 4:
Set oven to High Power for 1 minute.
Step 5:
Close door of microwave. If you
don't, nothing interesting
happens.
Step 6:
Hunker down in front of the
microwave and press 'play'----
oops! I mean, "Start" or "On" or
whatever it is your microwave has as
a start button.
Step 7:
Watch as the marshmallow treat
expands and ripples. Watch for
browning at the edges of the rapidly morphing
marshmallow food product.
If you see browning,
TURN OFF YOUR MICROWAVE.
At this point, the
marshmallow food product is in danger of turning into
burnt sugar
slag. This burnt sugar slag will burn plastic dinner
ware.
And skin.
Step 8:
If your sno-ball or mallowmal has
not turned into burnt sugar
slag, remove it from microwave (usually after the timer
dings) and let
cool.
Step 9:
Eat if you dare.
Some enterprising young persons have been
known to slap the mallow thing between slices of toast,
cracker,
and/or American Cheese.
