-
In a large saucepan, melt butter on medium/low heat (be careful not to burn it!).
-
Then add in marshmallows and wait for them to completely melt.
-
Add in food coloring until desired green color is reached.
-
Pour in krispie rice cereal and stir gently until evenly coated in marshmallow mixture.
-
Remove from heat and let set for 3-5 minutes.
-
Coat hands in cooking spray or butter (this is so that the marshmallow krispie mixture won't stick to them), take a handful of the krispies and shape into a cone. Mine turned out to be 4-5 inches tall and it made about 10 of them. Lay onto a lined cookie sheet and pop into the fridge after you've shaped all the cones.
-
Once in the fridge for about 10 -20 minutes, take them out and they should be completely cold. Then you can decorate! I took a tube of icing and piped it into a swirl on each cone, added mini chocolate candies (I gently stuck them into the tree/icing completely on their own), and then sprinkled a few edible star decorations on the trees.
-
Finally, carefully place your tree on top of a peanut butter cup and your edible Christmas trees are done!
-
Then pour a glass of Chocolate TruMoo, heat it up and enjoy with your Krispie Treat Christmas Tree!
