  5. Make snowman and Santa Clause. In a bowl, beat 2 oz of cream cheese and add 1 tablespoon sugar. Mix well. Make sonw man. Take 1/4 of cream cheese and shape it into a ball. Make 2 balls and assembles each to make snow man. Draw eyes, nose and mouth with melted chocolate. Make Santa Clause. Cut the 1/3 top of strawberry off. Shape the rest of cream cheese into a ball and put on the strawberry. Put the cut top of strawberry to cover. Draw eyes, nose and mouth with melted chocolate.

If you still have cranberry sauce you got for Thanksgiving, this would be a great idea to finish your cranberry sauce. Also you could feel more of the Holiday Spirit by eating cranberry cheesecake! If you like to make with another jam, any kind of jam works well too.
