Each sugar cookie is decorated with a festive scene: a magical Christmas tree with a sparkling star stands amidst freshly fallen snow. This treat will impress your guests and is quite easy to make using chocolate candies, store-bought icing, and sprinkles. You can organize a holiday workshop with children so that each child can make their own charming cookies. You'll need mini chocolate peanut butter candies, such as Reese's, and Hershey's Kisses chocolate drops.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Carefully unwrap the peanut butter candies, making sure the chocolate doesn't stick to the wrapper (it's best to chill them first). Unwrap the chocolate chips.
- Cut 12 2-inch squares from parchment paper. Turn the glass upside down and place one of the parchment squares on the flat bottom. Place a peanut butter cup on the parchment, wide side down. Pipe a dot of green frosting on top of the peanut butter cup and top with a chocolate chip.
- Pipe green icing onto the chocolate tree to create tree branches.Starting at the bottom edge of the peanut butter candy, draw a thin, straight line up one of its valleys to the tip of the chocolate drop. Repeat on all sides. Attach a star made of colored sprinkles on top and decorate the tree with silver pearls, pressing lightly to ensure they adhere. Carefully slide the parchment with the tree off the glass and let the icing set. Assemble 11 more trees in the same manner.
- Using a butter knife or a small offset spatula, spread a layer of vanilla frosting around each sugar cookie, leaving a small circle around the edges to create snow. Carefully place a candy tree in the center of each cookie.
