Gum Drop Starbursts: This one is tons of fun to create and eat, and super easy to do with little ones. Grab toothpicks and multiple colors or sizes of basic gum drops. Use a larger gum drop in the center poking toothpicks around it in a starburst pattern. Slide gum drops onto the toothpicks arranging by color or size to create a fun and unique candy craft.
Peppermint Candy Ornaments: Put wax paper down on a baking sheet and place metal cookie cutters on wax paper. Spray inside of cookie cutters with non stick spray. Put peppermint candies inside cookie cutters and bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until cookies have melted. Use toothpick to punch hole in them for ribbon to hang on tree, or simply use as table decor for a fun snack later.
Waffle Cone Christmas Trees: Coat the outside of a waffle cone with green icing. Use favorite candies to decorate the outside making it appear to be a fun and edible Christmas tree.
Chocolate Snowcone Pinecones: Using peanut butter, tootsie rolls and chocolate cereal dusted in powdered sugar you can assemble a tasty and easy to make. These are fun to eat, but even more fun to make and see if people can tell if they are a real pinecone or a yummy holiday treat!
Nutter Butter Reindeer: This classic holiday treat brings the famous peanut butter cookies, a bit of icing, some candy pieces and pretzels together to create a fun and popular snack for kids. Super easy to assemble and customize.
