Ingredients
Scale
- 10 Vanilla Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 12 oz almond bark or white chocolate candy melts
- Red food coloring
- Green sanding sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the Baking Sheet: Begin by preparing a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside. This will be used to place the truffles once they are formed.
- Crumble the Cakes: Place the Christmas tree cakes in a large mixing bowl and crumble them thoroughly. This is the base of your truffle mixture.
- Mix with Cream Cheese: Add the softened cream cheese to the crumbled cakes. Using a hand mixer, beat the mixture until it is well combined and starts to form a dough-like consistency.
- Form the Truffles: Using a small cookie scoop, create tablespoon-sized balls of the cake mixture. Roll the mixture between your palms to form smooth, even balls and arrange them on your prepared baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for about 30 minutes, or until the truffle balls are firm.
- Melt the Chocolate: While the truffles are hardening, place the white chocolate or almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat it in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until it is completely melted and smooth.
- Dip the Truffles: Using a fork, dip each hardened cake ball into the melted white chocolate, ensuring each one is evenly coated. Gently tap off any excess chocolate and return the truffles to the parchment paper.
- Add Color and Sparkle: Mix a few drops of red food coloring into any remaining melted white chocolate. Use this colored chocolate to drizzle over the white-coated truffles for a festive look. Immediately sprinkle green sanding sugar over them to add texture and sparkle.
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
