Cooking
First prepare the dough for the cookies. RUB the butter with the sugar.
Add the egg, mix thoroughly.
Add flour, baking powder and salt, knead the dough, and then rolled a ball placed in a bag and in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Take the dough out of the fridge and breaking off bits off, roll the balls in three sizes. The weight of the smallest-about 10-15 grams, 20-25 grams medium, large - 30-35 grams (you can do everything on the eye, but so precise). The balls then dip them in vanilla sugar.
The beads are placed on a baking sheet at a great distance from each other - they will be well spread. Bake them in preheated 180 degree oven for 10-15 minutes. Small biscuits are better to get in 8 minutes. If overexposed, the cookies will be more crispy.
The cream is prepared as follows. Combine butter with cream cheese.
Add the powdered sugar, whisk until smooth. It turns out very thick, smooth, beautiful and sweet cream, which will perfectly keep the shape. As far as I know, this cream is used for cupcakes. You can add the dye. Communicating with the liquid dye, You have to understand that you may need more powdered sugar. Put cream in a pastry bag or other appropriate device.
You can now collect Christmas trees. Take a large diameter biscuits, apply the cream on the edge of it - two turns will be enough - it turns out a shallow well. However, the well can be done and deeper, then the tree will be higher. The cream spread a medium-size cookie, repeat the operation with the cream.
Then we put a little cookie and complete the composition, creating by the cream of the top of the tree. Topping will make the tree beautiful and elegant.
Christmas trees will be better kept in the fridge before the guests arrive or serving, the cream will be covered with a light "crust" and after removing from the refrigerator under any circumstances will not lose shape and does not flow, everything will be fine)
