Snowman cookie pops – M&M buttons are all the rage

Photobucket

Yep, more winter-related food art. It’s December after all and apparently, that’s what I’m supposed to be thinking about.

I’m really not sure it should be so publicly-accepted to be drooling over eating our favorite holiday friends.

Frosty? Rudolph? Santa? Yeah, you were great in that song and loved the movies, but uh, now I’m hungry and you’re so cute I could eat two dozen. I’m sure they greatly appreciate that.

Anywho, as usual, click on over to a different site (Make and Takes) for a full tutorial. I was thrilled to see that these are actually made with mini-Oreos instead of the cliché, expected cake pops.

Rudolph the Cocoa Krispy Reindeer…had a very candy nose…

So obviously, they’re cute. No doubt about it.

But you wanna know what makes them even cuter?

That as soon as I saw them, I pictured them moving and talking like old school Rudolph the Reindeer movie.

Yep, definitely cuter now. Make a dozen or two, act out the entire movie, and eat them when you’re done.

Wait. That turns the classic movie into a horror film, huh? Maybe just eat them the next day after the film nostalgia has passed.

Christmas tree sushi -Deck the halls with boughs of Japanese mayo

Sushi art can keep my attention for way longer than it probably should, but I love it. People can get so creative with it and here’s an example of a cool Christmas twist….even if it’s not exactly “traditional.”  Shape them into little Christmas trees and then chow down.

Christmas tree sushi

300g cooked Japanese rice
2 TBS rice vinegar
100g chopped toro
1 avocado
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 nori sheet
4 shiso
chopped green onion
ikura
mayonnaise
4 star-shaped cheese (meiji)
soy sauce

Follow instructions in the video to see how to make them. :)
