How to make these cupcakes

• Start by frosting your vanilla cupcakes with the vanilla frosting of your choice and shrinking them with a generous amount of coconut flakes, to resemble snow.
• Now melt your white chocolate and add a little bit of matcha at a time while stirring, until you reach your desired color of green.
• Transfer the now green matcha white chocolate to a zip log baggie and snip off the end of the bag.
• Place a thin pretzel rod on a plate or some parchment paper and drizzle the chocolate on top of it, in the form of a Christmas tree. Start narrow at the top, and wider as you go down.
