Waffle Christmas Tree

Hi! Sorry for being MIA.  I had my second kid in November, and even though my husband and I are making a lot of stuff, I either didn't take pictures of just haven't posted stuff I do have.

Christmas morning, we made green waffles and made this:


I've seen on pinterest just laying out the squares, but my husband wanted to make it stand up.  So he did.  I liked it.  

I used this recipe:

I do not take credit for the recipe! But I got a lot of compliments from guests from Costa Rica.  I really wanted to make this for my toddler and for my nephew who was coming that morning.  They both seem to love waffles and berries!

For the food coloring, I just used blue and mixed in a little yellow to the batter.  As you can see though, especially on the bottom waffles, I didn't put enough food coloring.  So it's safe to say you can go into a really dark forest green color when mixing it.

So there it is!
