Description

Create festive Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cake Truffles for a nostalgic, no-bake holiday treat. These creamy, bite-sized desserts combine crumbled snack cakes with cream cheese, dipped in white chocolate, and decorated with classic red stripes and green sprinkles for a delightful festive touch.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 Christmas Tree Snack Cakes
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 18 ounces white chocolate chips
  • Red cookie icing (not gel)
  • Green sanding sugar

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
  2. Crumble the Christmas Tree Cakes into a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add the cream cheese chunks to the bowl.
  4. Use a hand mixer to blend until a thick, dough-like mixture forms.
  5. Roll the mixture into balls using a 1½-inch cookie scoop.
  6. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Freeze the truffles for about an hour to firm them up.
  8. Melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring until smooth.
  9. Dip each chilled truffle into the melted white chocolate, letting excess drip off.
  10. Place the dipped truffles back on the parchment paper.
  11. Sprinkle with green sanding sugar while the chocolate is wet.
  12. Use cookie icing to draw signature red zigzag lines on each truffle.
  13. Chill the truffles in the refrigerator for another hour to set.
  14. Remove any excess chocolate or icing from the edges before serving.

Notes

  • Use cookie icing that hardens for perfect red stripes.
  • Reheat melted white chocolate in 10-second intervals if it thickens.
  • For easier dipping, insert a toothpick into the truffle, remove it before decorating.
  • These truffles make excellent edible gifts.
  • For a chocolate version, use Chocolate Christmas Tree Cakes and dip in milk or dark chocolate.
  • Add peppermint extract to the filling and use crushed candy canes for peppermint truffles.
  • Make mini bites by rolling smaller truffles for a dessert board.
