Flower Dirt Cups
š³ These dirt cups are the cutest way to celebrate Tu BāShevat, the birthday of the trees (or save it down for Earth Day! Or even Valentineās Dayā¦ theyāre flowers people!)
š My kids loved trying some of the seven species like dates + figs. While they werenāt a fan of those dried fruits on their own, paring them with chocolate pudding was a definite YES for both of them.

Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- For the chocolate pudding: Add all ingredients (except for chocolate chip garnish) to a food processor and blend until smooth. Garnish with chocolate chips. Serve immediately or store in refrigerator.
- For the pretzel flowers/tree: Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt your chocolate chips and coconut oil together and stir until smooth (you can either do this on the stovetop or in the microwave).
- For the tree: Line 4 pretzel sticks up next to each other and using a spoon, coat with chocolate. Use a spoon to create branches with your chocolate (make it thick so it won't crack once solid). Decorate the bottom with graham crackers and the top with assorted dried fruits/nuts/seeds to resemble a tree with hanging fruit.
- For the flowers: Take a pretzel stick and coat in chocolate. Add a dollop of chocolate at the top. Decorate with a blueberry in the middle and strawberry slices surrounding it.
- Take another pretzel stick and coat in chocolate. Add a dollop of chocolate at the top. Decorate with a sunflower seeds in the middle and blueberries surrounding it.
- Take another pretzel stick and coat in chocolate. Add a dollop of chocolate at the top. Decorate with a pumpkin seeds in the middle and sliced apricots surrounding it.
- Freeze for 30+minutes until the chocolate hardens, and enjoy!
