1. 1
   Cut 9 drinking straws into two three inch lengths each.

   Stir the dissolved jell-o then pour into thr spice jar, making sure it fills the straws.

    Place small blobs of white chocolate in the relevant places and add: currants for eyes, pink micro mallows for noses, two white micro mallows for its teeth, cola bottles for ears, then use white chocolate to attach the baskets under its chin and use currants as paws, holding the baskets.

    Take the jell-o straws out of the fridge, pull one straw out at a time and squeeze one end (like toothpaste) until the jell-o comes out, and place each one over a basket like a handle.
