Tree-eats!
Plant your
own tree-eats. Fill small individual paper cups with about
1 inch of chocolate pudding for the dirt. Crumble Oreo's or chocolate
sandwich cookies over it for topsoil. To make the trees, insert
straight pretzels into gumdrops. The gumdrops will keep the
pretzels standing upright as well as look like the balled roots
of the tree. Plant your trees in the pudding and enjoy!
