Three-dimensional Christmas tree bread
A week before Christmas, I saw many gourmets starting to prepare Christmas delicacies one after another, including roast chicken, pizza, gingerbread house, Christmas bread, etc. It really opened my eyes. It was as exquisite as crafts. I admire everyone's craftsmanship and imagination! I just wanted to learn a few simple and practical ones and try them on Christmas Day. Although it is a Western festival, the atmosphere of Christmas is getting stronger and stronger every year. We have to keep up! Haha ~ Then make some Christmas food to meet the occasion! After nearly a day of work, I have made several types of bread and biscuits. Today, I will serve one first-three-dimensional Christmas tree bread, and the rest will be served later.
