Ingredients

  • 2 boxes Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes 5 count each
  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese softened
  • 1 package White Candy Melts 16 ounces
  • 1 pouch Pre-made Red Cookie Icing
  • Red and Green Sanding Sugar

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper and set aside.
  • Crumble the Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add in the cream cheese.
  • Beat together with a hand held mixer until well combined.
  • Take small amounts (about a tablespoon or so) and roll into a ball (I used a cookie scoop for this process). Then place on the baking sheet.
  • Continue this process until all the balls are formed and place the baking sheet in the freezer. Freeze for at least 1 hour.
  • Place the white candy melts in a large microwave safe bowl.  Microwave for 1 minute, stir and continue to heat in 30 second intervals (stirring after each interval) until melted and smooth.
  • Dip each ball into the white candy melts, tap on the edge of the ball to remove any excess candy and place back on the baking sheet.
  • Top with the red and green sanding sprinkles, cool at room temperature for 3-4 hours or in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  • Drizzle the red cookie icing on top of the cake balls once the candy coating is set to resemble the red frosting on the Christmas tree cakes.
  • Then the cake balls are ready to serve and enjoy!

Notes

Store any leftover cakes at room temperature in an airtight container or bag for up to 5 days.  If you live in a humid area, store in the refrigerator to keep the cake balls from melting.
