Um, okay bear with me. You know
those cute cookies-used-as-bottle-toppers-that-straws-fit-through? I have no idea what to call them. They're all over Pinterest (
and I used them here). I love the look, and I was anxious to recreate something like this for a recent little gathering, but with a Christmassy theme instead. I was sent these stunning
Birch Straws c/o
Pop Roc Parties, and a Christmas Wreath seemed like the perfect substitute for the flower cookies. I could've just made cookies for these too, I suppose, but this seemed more fun.
So they don't look
exactly like wreaths, but I thought they looked quite sweet still.
I made Chocolate Crackle using this recipe, pressing them into cupcake wrappers and making holes in centers before they set. I also added some extra cocoa to cover over the rice bubbles better. Then sprinkled with green hundreds and thousands, and some little sweets. And I still have heeeeeaps of Crackle left in my fridge, which I am trying very hard to resist eating.
I will show you more scenes from this little party in another advent post... soon...
They look delish and cute!
