Sprinkle your larger sugar pearls onto the buttercream first, then your smaller sugar pearls.You can smooth it out with a palette knife or leave it slightly textured. Spread (or pipe) buttercream all over the cookie.Lightly sprinkle coarse sparkling sugar along the bottom edge of each row of branches.Repeat with a second and third row, finishing at the top of the cookie. Starting at the bottom of the cookie, pipe a row of swoops to form the bottom row of branches. This is similar to the technique used to pipe a “shell” border around a cake. If you’re not familiar with this technique, practice it a few times on wax paper until you like how it looks. To form the rounded base of each branch, begin squeezing the buttercream as you push forward slightly, then pull back. TIP: It’s easiest to pipe the swoops with the cookie turned upside down.
