Chocolate Kinder Christmas Trees

# What You Need:

→ Chocolate Bars

01 - 24 mini Kinder chocolate bars or similar

→ Chocolate Drizzle

02 - 5.3 oz dark or milk chocolate, chopped

03 - 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)

→ Decorations

04 - 3 tablespoons festive sprinkles or edible glitter

05 - 8 mini chocolate or candy stars

# Directions:

01 - Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

02 - Unwrap all Kinder bars. For each tree, stack three bars: one whole, one broken in half overlapped to form a triangle, and one more on top to add height, shaping them to resemble a tree.

03 - Place each stacked tree on the prepared tray spacing them evenly apart.

04 - Melt the chopped chocolate and coconut oil together in a heatproof bowl set over simmering water or microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

05 - Drizzle the melted chocolate over each stacked tree using a spoon or piping bag to create a festive branches effect.

06 - Immediately sprinkle festive sprinkles and top each tree with a mini chocolate or candy star before the drizzle sets.

07 - Refrigerate the decorated trees for 10 to 15 minutes until the chocolate sets firmly.

08 - Serve the chocolate trees chilled or at room temperature.

Don't skip the parchment paper—chocolate sticks to bare trays and ruins the whole aesthetic when you try to peel them off.
Sprinkles only stick to warm chocolate, so work fast once you start drizzling, or you'll end up with naked trees and sprinkles rolling onto the floor.
