# Ingredient List:
→ Donuts
01 - 36 mini plain or glazed donuts, store-bought or homemade
→ Decorations
02 - 2 cups powdered sugar
03 - 3 to 4 tablespoons milk
04 - Food coloring: red, green, blue, gold, silver as desired
05 - Sprinkles, edible glitter, or colored sugar
06 - Assorted candies such as mini M&Ms and silver dragees
07 - Mini pretzel sticks or chocolate sticks for ornament hooks
→ Assembly
08 - 1 large foam or cardboard cone, approximately 12 to 14 inches tall, food-safe or wrapped in parchment
09 - Toothpicks
# How-To Steps:
01 - Combine powdered sugar and milk in a bowl, adding milk gradually until a thick but pourable glaze forms. Divide glaze into small bowls and tint each with desired food coloring.
02 - Dip or drizzle each mini donut with colored icing. While icing is wet, embellish with sprinkles, edible glitter, and candies to mimic Christmas ornaments. Let them set for 10 to 15 minutes.
03 - Wrap the foam or cardboard cone with food-safe wrap or parchment paper to protect it during assembly.
04 - Starting at the cone’s base, attach decorated donuts with toothpicks, overlapping slightly as you work upwards until the cone is fully covered.
05 - Insert mini pretzel sticks or chocolate sticks into the tops of each donut to resemble ornament hooks or caps.
06 - Optionally dust the entire tower with additional edible glitter for a sparkling finish before serving.
