Make Cookie Trees out of vanilla wafers for a fun holiday centerpiece that the kids can help create.
Ingredients:
2 16-ounce boxes confectioners' sugar
6 egg whites
3 styrofoam cones, ranging in height from 7 to 12 inches (available at craft stores)
4 12-ounce boxes vanilla wafers or other small, flat cookies
Directions:
1. Beat all but 1/4 cup of the sugar with the egg whites until stiff. Spread a thin layer of the frosting on a cone, then, working from the bottom up, overlap cookies, using more frosting as necessary. Repeat for the other 2 cones. Use a small sieve to dust the trees with the remaining sugar.Note: Straight pins can be used to hold the cookies in place until the frosting dries, but don't forget to remove them.
