How to Make a Dessert Board

Tracy @ Next Level Baker
Turn a mix of treats into something fun and shareable with a dessert board. We fill it with cookies, brownies, bars and fruit, and let then guests graze and choose their favorites.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 or more types of cookies
  • 2 or more types of brownies and bars
  • 1 or more fruits
  • 1 or more unusual sweets like Belgian waffles
  • 2 or more small filler treats like chocolate covered pretzels or almonds

Instructions
 

  • Start by cutting any large cookies, bars or waffles into smaller pieces.
  • Next, take your first dessert and make 3 or more groupings of that dessert. They don't have to be perfectly spaced out. We started with the Belgian waffles.
  • Then, take your next dessert and make 3 or more groupings of that dessert. They can be touching, but don't have to be touching, your first 3 groups. We used strawberries for the second dessert.
  • Next place and stack some cookies and bars in different directions in three or more spots each. Think about adding color pops in different areas of the board.
  • Finally, fill in any empty, blank spots on your board with the filler items like chocolate covered pretzels or almonds.
  • If you have extra treats, you can also pile them higher vertically.
