Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 5-count box Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes (vanilla or chocolate)
  • 2 –3 oz cream cheese softened (optional, for creamier texture)
  • 10 oz white melting chocolate or almond bark
  • Holiday sprinkles red, green, gold, etc.
  • Red and green candy melts optional, for drizzling

Method
 

  1. Unwrap all the Christmas Tree Cakes and crumble them into a large mixing bowl using your hands or a fork.
  2. If desired, mix in 2–3 oz of softened cream cheese to help bind the mixture and add richness. Stir until a thick dough forms.
  3. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill in the freezer for 20–30 minutes until firm.
  4. While chilling, melt the white chocolate or almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
  5. Dip each chilled cake ball into the melted chocolate using a fork or dipping tool. Tap off excess chocolate and place back on parchment paper.
  6. Immediately top with sprinkles or let the coating harden first and drizzle with red and green candy melts for decoration.
  7. Let set at room temperature or in the fridge until firm.

Notes

Vanilla Christmas Tree Cakes are the classic go-to, but chocolate cakes work great for a deeper flavor.
Cream cheese is optional but helps hold the balls together, especially if your cakes are dry.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
Great for gifting — just pop a few in festive treat bags or boxes!
