With just a few simple steps, transform chocolate and powdered sugar mini donuts into adorable Rudolph and Snowman Mini Donuts for an extra special Christmas breakfast treat.
Merry Christmas to you!
I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas! In celebration of this very special day, I'm sharing today the adorable Rudolph and Snowmen mini donuts my Mom and I made last year for Christmas morning breakfast. They're such a super cute little bite-sized treat.
Now, this isn't really a recipe ... rather, just a little 'show-how-to-assemble.'
And, of course, I can't take credit at all for this cute little idea. Nope, as we probably all know, these cuties have been all over Pinterest. {Sadly, though, I'm not able to give credit to the original creator and link back to that site because all of the pins I checked for these didn't link back anywhere ... they just went into the Pinterest black hole. So sad, 'cause I'd love to credit the creator.}
For the Rudolph donuts you'll need: chocolate mini donuts, pretzel twists, red M&Ms, white icing {in the tube or in a piping bag with a tiny tip}, and chocolate sprinkles.
To assemble these red-nosed cuties, break the pretzel twists to resemble antlers and stick them into the top of each donut.
Then stick a red M&M into the center as the nose. Finally, pipe two tiny dots of white icing for the eyes, and place a chocolate sprinkle in the center of each icing dot.
And Rudolph's ready for his flight! ... straight into your mouth.
For the snowmen donuts you'll need: powdered sugar mini donuts, mini chocolate chips, chocolate sprinkles, and the ends of baby carrots {or orange jelly beans} for noses.
To assemble the snowmen, stick a baby carrot end {or orange jelly bean} into the center as the nose.
Then stick in two mini chocolate chips, upside down, for the eyes.
Finally, stick chocolate sprinkles in vertically, forming a smile.
Now, quick! ... serve 'em up before they melt. Enjoy!
Merry Christmas from The Kitchen is My Playground

ReplyDeleteI added a new blog post yesterday. There's a smaller list than usual in it. I'm currently working on a bigger list. It's going to take some time to compile it. I hope all of you are having a good week. I'm planning on doing some design changes to my site. I'm also thinking about adding some new things too. I'll talk more about that in the days and weeks to come.
