Flower Dirt Cups
🌳 These dirt cups are the cutest way to celebrate Tu B’Shevat, the birthday of the trees (or save it down for Earth Day! Or even Valentine’s Day… they’re flowers people!)
🍇 My kids loved trying some of the seven species like dates + figs. While they weren’t a fan of those dried fruits on their own, paring them with chocolate pudding was a definite YES for both of them.

- 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.
