- Using an offset spatula or butter knife, spread green frosting on the sugar cone. Including around the bottom edge.
- Place the sugar cone onto a round sugar cookie. Press down, and be careful not to break the cookie or sugar cone. Allow to set for 10 minutes.
- Spread green frosting onto the cone. Once the cone is covered in green frosting, have fun decorating your tree using sprinkles, M&Ms, or other edible decorations.
- Top each tree with a star sprinkle, if desired.
Notes
You do not need to use the sugar cookie base. However, it does make it easier to turn the sugar cone while frosting.
You may use any kind of flat cookie such as chocolate chip or oatmeal in place of the sugar cookie.
For a more decorative look you can fill a piping bag with frosting and your choice of tip and pipe frosting over sugar cone.
Other options for decorating your Christmas Tree including using coconut, gum drops, peppermint drops, or ribbon candy. The options are endless.
Homemade frosting can be used in place of store-bought.
