Christmas Tree Toppers
Holiday baking doesn’t have to be hard- these EASY Christmas trees are the perfect cupcake topper!
Christmas Tree Cupcakes
-
Simply melt green melting chocolate according to package directions.
-
Place in a zip top bag with a corner snipped off.
-
Place a pretzel stick on a silicon baking mat and create a tree shape over the top of the pretzel by going back and forth.
-
Add small candies for bulbs if desired.Let harden completely.
This easy Christmas Cupcake topper is just what you need to add a little whimsy and magic to your cupcakes. If you need a guide when going back and forth with the chocolate, you can print out a triangle shape and slip it under the silicon mat for a shape guide. But you can easily eye-ball the whole operation.
The key here is waiting until the chocolate hardens completely or else you will have a mess on your hands.
This is a fun activity to get your children to help you with. They can either decorate the trees with small round candies or let them pipe the chocolate back and forth – perfect for hand-eye coordination.
