Dessert Charcuterie Tray

I made this dessert tray for a party on Christmas day, but then Dave and I both got sick and we couldn't go! Ugh. Brooke came and picked up the tray for me tho and took it to the party - hopefully everyone liked it, I haven't asked yet. It came together so good, I think it looks yummy and there's plenty of variety for everyone to find something they like!


I made mini filled cupcakes, sugar cookie cups, chocolate fudge, buckeyes, cherry pecan chews, pretzel hugs, puppy chow, and I dipped store-bought shortbread scotties in melted chocolate. I added all that to the tray along with candy (Christmas colored M&Ms, rollos, hugs, peppermint hard-candy), mini marshmallows, chessman butter cookies, and cashews. 

I spread the work of making the different things over several days - the cupcakes and cookies were baked and frosted last week and put in the freezer; we had baking day a few days ago so I had the puppy chow and buckeyes already on hand; the pretzel hugs, cherry chews, and fudge I made a couple days prior. 

I made neighbor gifts with the extras from the party tray (and I still have leftover goodies, oh no I have to find someone else to share them with so (a) they don't go to waste and (b) I don't eat them all and they go to my waist hahah!
