Chocolate Kinder Christmas Trees

# What You’ll Need:

→ Chocolate Bars

01 - 24 mini Kinder chocolate bars (or similar)

→ Chocolate Drizzle

02 - 5.3 oz dark or milk chocolate, chopped

03 - 1 tsp coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)

→ Decorations

04 - 3 tbsp festive sprinkles or edible glitter

05 - 8 mini chocolate stars or candy stars (for tree tops)

# How-To Steps:

01 - Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

02 - Unwrap all mini chocolate bars. For each tree, stack three bars: one whole, one broken in half and overlapped to form a triangle, and one more on top to create height or tree shape.

03 - Place each stacked chocolate tree on the prepared tray, spaced evenly.

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

05 - Use a spoon or piping bag to generously drizzle melted chocolate over each stacked tree, creating a branch-like effect.

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

07 - Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes until the chocolate drizzle is set.

08 - Serve chilled or at room temperature.

# Expert Hints:

01 -

Takes less than 20 minutes from start to finish, leaving time for the actual celebrating.
Kids can handle almost every step, which means less solo kitchen time and more laughter.
Looks impressively festive without requiring any fancy baking skills or special equipment.

02 -

If your chocolate is too thick, a teaspoon of coconut oil is a lifesaver—it thins it just enough to drape without drowning the bars.
Sprinkles stick best while chocolate is still warm, so resist the urge to be precious with your timing and just go for it.
