Comet's Christmas Tree Cones
This is a great treat for a group of 10-12 kids. Santa and all the reindeer enjoy making this one together.
-Small paper plates
-Plastic knives or spoons
-Box of sugar ice cream cones
-White frosting (2-4 cans)
-Green food coloring (optional)
-Candies (mini M&M's, sprinkles, flowers, edible silver balls, gummi bears,
etc.)
-Shredded coconut
-Gingerbread men cookies (comes in a bag for $1 during the holiday season)
Directions:
1. Distribute plates and give each child a sugar cone.
2. Using the green food coloring, add 3-5 drops into tubs of white frosting, and
mix well.
3. Add a little frosting to the top of the cone (where the ice cream goes in)
and place on the plate.
4. Coat the entire cone with frosting and decorate.
5. Sprinkle shredded coconut over the tree to resemble snow.
6. On the plate around the tree, dab a little more frosting and stick the
gingerbread men cookies on them.

MAKE SURE YOU USE SUGAR CONES AND NOT THE REGULAR ICE CREAM CONES!
