MAKE IT CUTE

This time of year, cookies seem to steal the spotlight. But that's no reason to forget one of our fave desserts: cupcakes! They're the perfect size for a holiday sweet treat and easy enough to make that even a beginner baker can whip 'em up.

And while the flavor is the most important part (team red velvet over here!), it's also *totally* possible to create a cupcake that looks as good as it tastes with these tree toppers. The best part? They're made with chocolate and pretzels so they're 100 percent edible. 

Ingredients:

- Pretzel sticks
- 1 cup green candy melts
- Sprinkles

Directions:

1. Melt the candy melts according to the directions on the package. Place the mixture in a piping bag.

2. On a baking sheet lined with wax paper, space out your pretzel sticks about 2-3 inches apart.

3. Pipe the melted candy over each pretzel in the shape of a tree. Add your sprinkles immediately before it hardens.  

4. Let cool in the fridge for at least 10 minutes before removing and sticking on your cupcakes.
