Edible Christmas Candles
Whimsical desserts resembling candles, made from fudge marshmallow cookies, wafer rolls, and almonds, perfect for holiday celebrations.
Ingredients
- 15 raw almonds
- 1 box fudge marshmallow cookies (often called pinwheels)
- 15 wafer rolls
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1-2 Tbsp water
Instructions
- Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add the raw almonds and cook for 1 minute to loosen the skins. Drain and rinse under cold water, then pat dry and slip off the skins.
- Fit the wafer rolls into the holes of the fudge marshmallow cookies, chocolate side down, to create the candle base.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar with 1 tablespoon of water, adding more water gradually until you achieve a smooth, thick glaze.
- Dip some glaze around the base of the wafer rolls to secure them in the cookie. Add more glaze on top of the wafers, allowing it to drip down the sides for a candle effect.
- Insert blanched almonds into the top of each wafer roll, pointy side up, to resemble candle flames.
- Store in a cool place or refrigerator until ready to serve.
