Gosh this break cannot come soon enough. Tomorrow I’ll be
driving up to Townsville , and then my sister and I will continue the trek up
to Cairns. It’s going to be so hot. Oh so hot....basically I’ve only packed
bikinis and sundresses.
I’m not too into Christmas this year. Probably because the
lead up has been very un-christmasy. Our house is not decorated, the boyf doesn’t
really celebrate Christmas, and I’ve just been at work 24/7. So nope, not
feeling it.
Maybe I’ll get more into it when I get to Cairns and
everyone is there and the puppy is trying to eat the Christmas tree, but until
then, I’m just gonna hide away and be the Grinch.
Anywho, I do hope you all are jolly and happy and swirling
in tinsel and wrapping paper.
I did try to get all cheery. I made these. They’re pretty
cute ey. I gave one to the boyf (who doesn’t like sweet things) and he made all
kinds of sexual delicious food noises. So that’s gotta mean they’re reeeal
good.
Although I think you should make them and just look at their
cuteness.
36 Oreo Cookies
250g cream cheese, softened
1 cup red candy melts
1/2 cup white chocolate
1/4 cup shredded coconut
Mini marshmallows
|
Begin by processing the cookies in a food processor until finely ground. Transfer to a large bowl and mix with cream cheese until fully combined.
Scoop cookie balls with a 1 Tbspn cookie scoop. Using your
hands, roll into a ball. Pinch the top of the ball and shape until you have a cone,
which resembles a Santa hat. Repeat until all dough is used.
Freeze cookie balls for at least one hour.
Melt the red candy melts in a bowl according to package
directions. Using a toothpick, fork or your fingers, dip each Santa hat into
the red candy coating. Tap on side of bowl so the excess drips off. Once all
hats are covered in red, dip the bottom of a mini marshmallow in red candy
coating and attach it to the top of the hat. Allow red coating to harden
completely, about 15-30 minutes.
Have the shredded coconut on a shallow plate ready.
Melt the white chocolate in bowl and dip in base of hats. Run
the outside of the white chocolate in the shredded coconut.
Dip the top of the marshmallow into the white chocolate and again
into the coconut.
