Reese's Peanut Butter Christmas Tree, 34 g, Pack of 36

Product Information

Peanut butter cup Christmas trees can be made and decorated wrapped or unwrapped. You choose your preference.

Then in a mixing bowl stir together peanut butter, melted butter, brown sugar vanilla and salt, until sugar dissolve. Next, gradually mix in powdered sugar. If cutting, shaping and dipping peanut butter Christmas Trees is not your cup of tea, you might also consider making Christmas trees from already made Reese’s peanut butter cups. These are great for young children to make and still provide the same delicious chocolate covered peanut butter flavors. The main benefit of making these trees is that they don’t involve any baking. You’ll want to plan ahead to allow the proper time to make them though, because for best results you’ll want to allow time for chilling. Use thin layers of chocolate. We recommend using a double boiler pan to melt the chocolate because it makes it smooth. Dip the chocolate in thin layers for the best results. You can always dip it more than once if desired. And if you make them for holiday, I’m sure they will be a huge hit! Moreover, they will be the first thing that will disappear from your Christmas cookie tray, too.

This year we decided to turn them into peanut butter trees! Once you try it, you may want to turn your favorite peanut butter ball recipe into these adorable decorated trees too. Why You Will Love This Christmas Treat In a medium size mixing bowl, mix together peanut butter, butter, vanilla, brown sugar, and salt until fully combined. Secondly, you’ll need just A FEW INGREDIENTS: chocolate, peanut butter, butter and sugar. And you probably have most of these ingredients on your hand already.

Melt the chocolate in a double boiler pan and dip the trees one by one using a fork. Place on parchment paper to cool. Cool fully in the refrigerator. If you’re using homemade frosting or frosting that doesn’t come in a tube, you’ll want to consider use a piping bag or improvise with a plastic storage bag and cut a small portion of the corner out to create a tip. The whole time I was making these peanut butter cup Christmas trees, I was pretty much drooling. Before you get too far though, I have to warn you that you need to have the proper sizes of peanut butter cups. I started by buying the Reese mini peanut butter cups, but they were all wrong. I set up everything to get started, and when I put them together with the Reese minis, my trees looked ridiculous. Ugh! There’s nothing worse than having to stop a project to run to the store! Cut the chilled peanut butter layer into any shape you prefer. Stars, gingerbread men, or bells are all good Christmas shapes. These chocolate covered peanut butter Christmas trees are so delicious! And as far as appearance is concerned, well, you can have them look more like a Christmas tree than how the store-bought Reese’s ones look. Here’s how to make them:Mini Peanut Butter Cups (NOT Mini Reese Peanut Butter cups – They are way too small to make a proper sized tree. The foil wrapped ones I used were from the bulk store.) If you’re looking for even more fun things to make for the holidays, here’s a few of our favourites:
