How to Make a Holiday Dessert Tray
While I would love to have the time to make six different homemade treats, sometimes that’s just not in the cards! Don’t be afraid to use your local grocery store bakery for a great variety of delicious and decadent treats!
You will need –
- 6 or more desserts / treats*
- 1 board or tray (I used a cutting board from Walmart)
- fresh mint leaves (rosemary also looks great!)
- fresh cranberries
* Some of my favorite store-bought treats to use for this dessert board are Brownie Bites, Peanut Brittle, Chocolate Covered Pretzels, and a Pecan Pie.
Directions –
- Cut your treats into bite-sized pieces
- Arrange them in clusters on your board.
- Tuck in some mint leaves to fill the empty spaces.
- Add some fresh cranberries for a pop of color.
