Instructions
- Mix frosting and green food coloring until you get a shade of green you like.
- Add frosting to a piping bag with a large star tip or decorative tip of your choice and chill in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
- When ready to style your board, start by piping the outline of a Christmas tree onto the center of a large serving tray or board.
- Fill the tree in with the frosting.
- Use the yellow M&Ms to create a star. If you prefer, you can also use yellow frosting to make the star.
- Create a tree trunk with the Hershey bar pieces.
- Arrange the donuts, cookies, pretzels, graham crackers, and other dipping items around the tree on the board. I used peppermints, white chocolate chips, and powdered donuts to create a "snowy" ground underneath the tree.
- Fill in any gaps with M&M's, gummy bears, or Christmas candy.
Notes
- I recommend assembling the board on the day you plan to serve it. That way, everything will be fresh and look its best.
- How many people this Christmas tree board serves depends on the size of your board and how hungry your guests are. As a general rule of thumb, a large board (about 18x24 inches) can serve around 12 people.
- If you're not confident in your piping skills, don't stress! You can always use a spatula or butter knife to spread the frosting into a tree shape. It'll taste just as delicious.
- Make sure you include some savory options! Pretzels and crackers are great for balancing out all the frosting sweetness.
