# How-To:

01 - Combine cream cheese, sour cream, chives, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a medium mixing bowl; stir until smooth. Transfer mixture to a small serving bowl and place hummus in a separate bowl.
02 - Thread a mini pretzel rod through three pretzel rounds: one yogurt-covered for the head and two plain for the body. Press mini chocolate chips into the yogurt-covered round to create eyes and buttons. Attach a carrot triangle as the nose and wrap a red bell pepper slice around the neck as a scarf. Optionally, use an edible marker to draw a mouth.
03 - Place the assembled snowmen on a large serving platter. Arrange bowls of dips nearby. Garnish with fresh parsley sprigs and halved cherry tomatoes for visual appeal.
