christmas stocking

submitted by: Bright Ideas
  • Decoration Time: 15 min.
  • Difficulty: Moderate
  • Yield: Makes 2 stockings.

Ingredients

  • 2 rectangular snack cakes, or pound cake cut into 1-1/2 x 4-inch rectangles
  • 6 pieces STARBURST® Fruit Chews
  • 1 tube decorative vanilla icing
  • ¼ cup M&M’S® Brand MINIS®

Directions

  • 1. Cut 2 snack cakes or pound cake rectangles on a diagonal line, starting 1-1/2 inch up from the bottom. Make the cut starting on the left and going to the right.
  • 2. Cut 1/2 inch off the snack cake, to even off the top.
  • 3. Exchange the two small sections of the snack cakes with each other, and arrange so that they look like stockings.
  • 4. Select and unwrap 4 STARBURST® Fruit Chews of the same color, and microwave for 5 seconds to slightly soften them. Mold together, and then roll out until they are paper-thin. Cut 2 rectangular strips from the STARBURST® Fruit Chews sheet (1 x 3-inch). Place those strips on the top of the snack cake stocking. Then, cut two 1-1/2 inch squares from the STARBURST® Fruit Chews sheet and wrap them around the heel of the stocking. Roll 2 small loops from the remaining STARBURST® Fruit Chews sheet, and attach to a top corner of the stocking.
  • 5. Randomly pipe small dots of vanilla icing around the stockings and press on M&M’S® Brand MINIS®. Pipe names on the STARBURST® Fruit Chews rectangles at the top of the stockings.
