Candy Recipes

Sugar Cone Christmas Trees

Sugar cones
Chocolate chips, white chocolate chips or candy melts
Assorted candies for decorating (gumdrops for the top)
Wax paper

Spread out sheets of wax paper to work on.

Microwave chocolate or candy melts in shallow bowl just until it begins to melt. Stir until smooth.

Roll cone in chocolate with two fingers inside cone. Lift cone out with two fingers inside cone.

Place a gumdrop on top and press gently. The gumdrop should make it easier to stand cone up on wax paper. Decorate with assorted candies. Let decorated "trees" stand until chocolate hardens.

Store sealed in cool place.

NOTE: White chocolate seems to harden much faster than regular chocolate, so decorate the white "trees" right away and let the regular chocolate ones set up a minute before decorating.

You may use chocolate or vanilla icing to attach the candy decorations.

Decorations:
M&M's large and mini sizes
