People around the world seem to have an ongoing love affair with an afternoon tea. In fact, some people would not even consider going through a day without at least one cup and in many cases, they will have several. Along with the tea, however, comes some type of snack and it is important to include it, especially if you are sharing the tea with someone you care about. Once you see these adorable edible teacups, you will rush to try them.
These edible teacups are not only great after a cup of tea, they are perfect for any snacks throughout the day. I’ve even served them for dessert, and they are always well received by my guests. They are quite easy to make, so you can throw them together in the afternoon and have them ready for your evening meal.
Ingredients:
wafer/cake ice cream cones
round cookies
chocolate covered round pretzels
decorator icing
instant pudding
meringue swirls
Instructions:
1. Cut away the base of a wafer ice cream cone using a sharp serrated knife. Use a gentle sawing motion to create a clean cut line.
2. Pipe a line of icing along the cut base of the cone top. Press onto a round cookie. This gives the appearance of a cup and saucer.
3. Slice off a small portion of a chocolate covered round pretzel. Use icing to adhere the cut pretzel to the side of cone. This becomes the cup handle.
4. Prepare instant pudding with cold milk. Spoon into cups.
5. Top each cup with a meringue swirl.
