Tips and Tricks
- Get Creative with Colors: While green is the traditional colour for Christmas trees, don’t hesitate to experiment with different coloured candy melts. Red, white, or even blue trees can offer a unique and eye-catching twist, perfect for themed parties or to match specific holiday decor.
- Try Different Candy Ornaments: Explore various types of small candies for decorating your trees. Various sprinkles and sanding sugar can all make charming and distinctive decorations, adding texture and variety to your cookies.
- Keep It Neat: To minimize mess and ensure a smooth decorating process, set up a large baking sheet to catch any runaway candies or sprinkles. This will help keep your workspace tidy and make cleanup a breeze.
Variations to Try
Chocolate-Dipped Christmas Trees: For an extra indulgent treat, consider dipping the entire Oreo in white or milk chocolate before adding the tree decorations. This creates a more luxurious experience for those who enjoy a chocolatey delight.
Nutty Christmas Trees: Introduce a nutty twist to your cookies by sprinkling chopped nuts such as almonds or pecans over the melted candy before it sets. This not only adds a delightful crunch but also offers a contrasting flavour that complements the sweetness of the cookies.
Peppermint Christmas Trees: For a refreshing and festive touch, sprinkle crushed peppermint candies or candy canes on top of the cookies while the candy melts are still soft. The minty flavour pairs beautifully with the chocolate, adding a cooling sensation that captures the essence of the holiday season.
