Directions
Chocolate Christmas Tree, In 1999 my boss gave all her 60 staff members one of these tree including me I was very impress with them but she refused to give anyone the recipe I found the recipe in 2005 in a Coles Christmas Magazine It was a lifesaver for me as in Dec 2005 I was unwell for most of December and in hospital for a week I was discharged 1 5 weeks before Christmas and very upset as I didnt have all my Christmas shopping done So I made these for my close family and friends They were all impressed, I even did a few variations Rocky Road Mixture: glazed cherries chopped in small piece, marshmallows copped in small pieces & crushed peanuts White Chocolate Tree: Used the same mixture as the original recipe except white chocolate Green Tree: The original recipe but white chocolate and lots of drops of green food colour I then got clear cello plastic to cover the tree but still be able to see it then decorated with nice ribbons Please note cooking time is actually chilling time , This was an awesome addition to my Holiday goodie trays Lots of oohs and aahs from the family and friends The presentation was great and taste even better!, Had everything I needed when I tagged this recipe, so went right to work since it will be 1 of 2 center pieces for a Yule dinner we’re having this evening! I made it with white chocolate & opted out of dusting it with powdered sugar & instead pressed colored sprinkles (or ‘100s & 1000s’ depending on where you’re from) & that worked out just fine! Then, not wanting either a regular star or a star of David, I shaped a 7-pointed shortbread star & topped the tree with that! OUTSTANDING, & many thanks for posting this recipe!
