Trim your Christmas dinner table with these individual-size tannenbaums made of ice cream or sherbet.
RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
Ice cream or Sherbet
Gumdrops
Edible glitter
1. For each one, first roll a piece of waxed paper into a cone and slip it inside a paper party hat set upside down in a freezer-safe glass.
2. Spoon 3/4 cup of slightly softened ice cream or sherbet into the hat, then set the glass in the freezer to harden (about 2 1/2 hours). Meanwhile, use a rolling pin to flatten gumdrops, then cut out stars using a small cookie cutter.
3. At serving time, invert the hats onto bowls, squeezing them gently to release the paper and the ice cream, then peel away the paper. Let the ice cream soften slightly, then sprinkle the trees with colored edible glitter and top each one with a gumdrop star, using a toothpick to secure it in place if needed.
