1 box Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes (5 cakes, unwrapped)

8 ounces white chocolate or white candy melts
→ Decorations
03 -
3 tablespoons festive sprinkles
04 -
3 tablespoons red candy melts, for drizzling (optional)
05 -
Green sanding sugar, for decoration
# How to Make It:
01 -
Place unwrapped Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes in a large mixing bowl.
02 -
Mix cakes with a handheld mixer until a uniform, crumbly dough forms. Incorporate festive sprinkles evenly throughout the mixture.
03 -
Using a tablespoon, scoop dough and roll between palms to form balls. Arrange each truffle on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Continue until all dough is shaped.
04 -
Melt white chocolate or candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl using 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Alternatively, use a double boiler.
05 -
Using a fork or dipping tool, fully immerse each truffle in melted white chocolate. Let excess chocolate drip off, then place coated truffles back onto the baking sheet.
06 -
Place red candy melts in a piping or ziplock bag. Melt in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, massaging bag between sessions until fully melted.
07 -
Snip the tip of the piping or ziplock bag. Drizzle melted red candy over each truffle, sprinkle with green sanding sugar, and chill in the refrigerator briefly to set before serving.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
For best results, ensure the dough is well-chilled before dipping to maintain truffle shape.
