A Sundae Bar

We’ll be ringing in the new year a little early with the kiddos {no one is ready to stay up till midnight around here!} and we’ll be doing it with a sundae bar with sprinkle-dipped waffle bowls!

I bought ready-made waffle bowls and added a bit of fun by dipping the edges of the waffle bowls in white candy melt, then in colorful sprinkles {you could use a color or a shaped sprinkle to match any party theme}.

Once dipped, I stuck them in the freezer until they hardened.  They look so much cuter and festive than plain bowls!  Plus, they’re edible which makes clean up easier {wink}.

We’re keeping the rest of the sundae bar really simple with ice cream …

… and a few toppings: a couple of syrup flavors, whipped cream, and mini chocolate chips.  You could add lots more toppings if you wanted: cherries, sprinkles, chopped nuts.

Simple but celebratory.  And a great way to end the year.
