Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 10 pieces vanilla Little Debbie Christmas tree cakes Crumbled for the base of the truffles.
  • 4 oz cream cheese (softened) Ensure it is soft for easy mixing.
  • 12 oz almond bark or white chocolate candy melts For coating the truffles.
  • 1 drop red food coloring For creating a decorative drizzle.
  • 1 oz green sanding sugar For festive decoration on the truffles.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  2. Crumble the Christmas tree cakes into a large mixing bowl until fine.
  3. Add the softened cream cheese to the crumbled cakes. Use a hand mixer to beat the mixture until it’s fully combined and forms a dough-like consistency.
  4. With a small cookie scoop, create tablespoon-sized balls. Roll them between your hands to form smooth balls and place them on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Freeze the cake balls for about 30 minutes, or until they harden.
  6. Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate or almond bark in a bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until it’s completely melted and smooth.
Coating and Decoration
  1. Use a fork to dip each chilled cake ball into the melted chocolate, letting any excess chocolate drip off before placing them back on the parchment.
  2. For the decorative drizzle, add a few drops of red food dye to any leftover melted chocolate until you reach your desired shade. Drizzle over the truffles using a fork or a piping bag.
  3. Finally, top your drizzled truffles with green sanding sugar for that eye-catching holiday sparkle.
