I used the same dough from the pumpkins to create these sneaky serpents. Calling them sneaky is fair, because these little guys are harder to make than they seem. My overconfidence really creeped up on this shape. I saved them for the last thinking, “You roll the dough into a worm and wrap it around a stick. Easy peasy!”
It could have been baker impatience, dough feistiness or a number of other things, but I could not get these snakes right. Some were too fat so they looked like they just consumed a whole antelope and many of them had imperfect heads.
Definitive Ranking
Snakes on a Stick were hands down my least favorite of the bunch. Maybe someone who has excellent Play-Doh skills can give these snakes the shape they deserve.
