Sugared Strawberry Christmas Lights
You will need
- plastic party picks or toothpicks
- mini marshmallows
- strawberries (on the smaller side)
- yellow sugar sprinkles
- red sugar sprinkles
- water
Directions
Cut the stem/leaves off of your strawberries (don't cut too big of a hole). Skewer mini marshmallow onto picks, about an inch up.
Dip marshmallow in a bowl of water and then roll into yellow sugar sprinkles, coating entirely. The sugar will stick to the wet marshmallow and the dye from the sugar will color the marshmallow yellow.
Push the strawberry onto the pick, pointed side out. Dip the strawberry in a bowl of water and then roll in red sugar sprinkles. The sugar will stick to the wet strawberry.
Display your "lights" on a platter, or line them up with green ribbon coming off of each pick to look like a line of Christmas lights!
Enjoy! These are a real crowd pleaser. I love the crunch of the sugar with the juicy strawberry!
