M&M Cookie Sundaes + Celebrating Life’s Special Events



M&M Cookie Sundae Bar l www.a-kitchen-addiction.com

Throughout the year, we come upon different days that have special meaning – whether it’s something big like a wedding or birthday or something smaller like your child losing his or her first tooth or finishing up the last day of school. Did you know that you can make those smaller events seem just as special as the bigger events in life? Throwing a party doesn’t have to be difficult or time consuming. With just a little prep, something like celebrating your children’s last day of school can be made extra special by putting together a cookie sundae bar. All you need are some M&M cookies (because they are fun and colorful!), brownies (or other favorite baked goods!), ice cream, toppings, a drink, and, of course, special serveware!

Dixie Ultra Moments® plates come in 10″ and 8″ designs. You can use the large plates as serving platters and not worry about washing large dishes at clean up! The smaller plates make great bases for building your perfect cookie sundae. The deep rim and sturdy construction means you don’t have to worry about your child grabbing the plate with one hand and having the plate bend in half with all of the food sliding off onto your clean floor! Celebrate with Style and Strength!

The cookie sundae bar can be completely customizable to your family’s tastes. Choose toppings that you know your family will love! Some examples include:

  • Sprinkles
  • Mini chocolate chips
  • Reese’s Pieces
  • Shredded coconut
  • Chopped nuts
  • Crushed cookies
  • Whipped cream
  • Chocolate syrup
  • Caramel syrup
  • Fresh fruit

Your kids will love piling on their favorite toppings to make their own special sundae! If you want to keep your table free of the inevitable spills and topping overflows, top it with a coordinating disposable tablecloth so you can wrap up the mess in the tablecloth and throw the whole thing in the trash!
