Sweet Carrots
Sweet Carrots
Vegetables were never this much fun! These great gifts are so easy, you can make a whole "bushel" for Easter celebrations.
Prep time: 20 min.
Difficulty: Easy
What you'll need:
  • 1 bag M&M'S® Brand Milk or Peanut Chocolate Candies for Easter
  • Green curling ribbon
  • 2 14-inch squares orange cellophane (available in arts and crafts stores; alternatively, use colored plastic wraps, available at most grocery stores)
What to do:
  1. Cut each square in half on the diagonal. You now will have four triangles.
  2. Using your thumb and forefinger, hold the middle of the cut diagonal edge of cellophane (the longest side). This middle point will become the tip of the cone. Using your other hand, roll the cellophane around, keeping that middle point as the tip, and make the cone. Tape both the inside and outside edges of the cone closed.
  3. Fill the cones 2/3 full with candy.
  4. Twist the top and tie it closed with the green ribbon.
