Description
Delicious and festive Christmas Chocolate Tree Cookies that are crispy and creamy, perfect for holiday celebrations!
Ingredients
Scale
- 200 grams dark chocolate
- 50 grams white chocolate
- 1/4 cup mini colorful sprinkles
- 8 pieces pretzel sticks
Instructions
- Prepare baking tray: Line a baking tray with parchment paper to prevent the chocolate trees from sticking and make removal easier later.
- Melt dark chocolate: Place the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or use a double boiler, gently heating and stirring until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
- Pipe tree shapes: Transfer the melted dark chocolate into a piping bag or a zip-top bag with a small tip cut off. Pipe tree shapes onto the parchment paper about 3 inches tall and 2 inches wide, ensuring that the bottom of each tree overlaps a pretzel stick to serve as the trunk.
- Melt white chocolate: Gently melt the white chocolate using the same method as the dark chocolate until smooth and drizzling consistency is achieved.
- Decorate trees: Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the dark chocolate trees to create a snowy effect.
- Add sprinkles: While the chocolate is still wet, immediately scatter mini colorful sprinkles over each tree to add festive decoration.
- Set the chocolate trees: Allow the chocolate trees to set by leaving them at room temperature or refrigerating for about 15-20 minutes until they become firm.
- Serve and display: Carefully lift the set chocolate trees from the parchment paper and arrange them on a festive platter for serving or gifting.
Notes
- For best results, ensure the chocolate is completely melted without any lumps before piping.
- Feel free to customize the sprinkles according to your holiday theme.
- Keep the chocolate trees stored in a cool place to maintain their shape.
