Make Cookie Trees out of vanilla wafers for a fun holiday centerpiece that the kids can help create. Ingredients:
2 16-ounce boxes confectioners' sugar |
6 egg whites |
3 styrofoam cones, ranging in height from 7 to 12 inches (available at craft stores) |
4 12-ounce boxes vanilla wafers or other small, flat cookies |
Directions:
1. Beat all but 1/4 cup of the sugar with the egg whites until stiff. Spread a thin layer of the frosting on a cone, then, working from the bottom up, overlap cookies, using more frosting as necessary. Repeat for the other 2 cones. Use a small sieve to dust the trees with the remaining sugar.Note: Straight pins can be used to hold the cookies in place until the frosting dries, but don't forget to remove them. |
