One of the Christmas dessert ideas includes winter-themed treats made from chocolate cupcakes crowned with vanilla frosting. Easy to make, these cupcakes, when frosted with white crystallized sugar, carry a snowball effect and use butterscotch chips and tiny chocolate chips to form the snowman’s face. Another choice involves crafting reindeer faces from a simple, fudgy brownie base and using pretzels for antlers, candy eyes, and red M&M noses.
A super easy holiday dessert consists of pre-made cupcakes dressed with a festive Santa hat design using red frosting and mini marshmallows. On the other hand, for a quick and engaging treat, festive reindeer can be made with a traditional Rice Krispies base and topped with candy eyes, red M&M noses, and chocolate antlers.
A favorite, a merry snack mix is prepared with the beloved Chex cereal, creamy peanut butter, red and green candy melts, and powdered sugar. Perhaps even more fun are the no-bake treats shaped from Oreo cookies and red candy melts to resemble the beloved Disney characters Mickey and Minnie Mouse.
Christmas-themed truffles made from crushed Oreos and cream cheese lend a snowman’s shape, while an easy-to-make vibrant dessert consists of red velvet layers and a sweet cream cheese filling. For color-tripping fun, you can make a poke cake with white cake mix and layers of cherry and lime JELL-O.
