Christmas Tree Treats

These easy no-bake Christmas tree desserts are sure to be a hit with the kids on Christmas Eve.

Just like our Christmas Tree Meringue Cookies, Christmas tree charcuterie, and Christmas Tree Cupcakes, these chocolate and candy trees are super cute and look impressive too. Only you’ll know that it took only seconds to make each one!

We used candy-coated sunflower seeds and candy stars to decorate our Christmas trees. If you have a difficult time finding these particular candies, you can use M&Ms, sprinkles, jumbo nonpareils, or whatever other candies your heart desires.

The kids will have a blast helping to decorate these Christmas tree treats. This is the kind of recipe that will inspire your kids to create even more fun things in the kitchen.

Not only are these Christmas tree desserts yummy, but they make great edible Christmas decorations as well. Place them randomly around your dessert table spread for a festive touch.

They are excellent for holiday gifting as well. You could place the treats in cellophane bags to give as gifts or use as stocking stuffers. They would also make the perfect addition to a holiday gift basket.

One thing is for sure, whatever way you choose to enjoy or gift these delicious Christmas tree treats, they are sure to be a huge hit!

Supplies / Ingredients

• 1 ½ cup Green Candy Melts
• 10 Pirouline Wafers (we used chocolate hazelnut but you can use any variety)
• 20 Milky Way Minis
• Candy to decorate (we used candy stars and candy coated sunflower seeds)

How to Make Edible Christmas TreesHow to Make Christmas Tree Treats

First, cut each Pirouline Wafer in half and lay them on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Make sure to leave enough space in between each one to add the chocolate.

Melt green candy melts in the microwave (at 30 sec. increments) or with Wilton Melting Pot. Use a spoon to pour the melted green candy melts into the corner of a sandwich size baggie and snip the corner slightly to create a piping bag.

To create the trees, squeeze the green chocolate out of the piping bag in a back and forth motion, starting at the bottom and working your way up to the top.

Make sure to start out wide and keep coming in little by little until you get to a point at the top.

Make just one or two at a time so you can put the candy decorations on them before they dry. If they do dry, simply squeeze a dot of chocolate where you want to place a candy to help it stick on. When you’re done making all the trees, allow them time to sit and harden (about 10 minutes).

Unwrap Milky Way Miniatures and place in microwave for about 3-4 seconds, to soften very slightly. Then, very carefully push the wafer down into the middle of the Milky Way. Let harden before serving (about 5 minutes).
