These Little Debbie Christmas Cake Balls are the perfect addition to your holiday dessert table! Each bite brings a festive burst of creamy sweetness with the nostalgic flavor of Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes. Coated in a white chocolate shell and finished with a drizzle of red candy melts and festive sanding sugar, they’re as delightful to look at as they are to eat.
Ingredients
- 2 boxes 5-count each vanilla Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes, crumbled
- 1 8 oz package cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1 16 oz package white candy melts
- 1/4 cup red candy melts melted (optional for decoration)
- Red and green sanding sugar for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, crumble the Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes. Add the softened cream cheese and mix until it forms a smooth dough.
- Shape the Balls: Roll the mixture into small, bite-sized balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill: Refrigerate the cake balls for about 30 minutes to help them firm up for coating.
- Coat with White Chocolate: Melt the white candy melts according to package directions. Using a fork or toothpick, dip each chilled cake ball into the melted white chocolate, ensuring they’re fully coated. Place them back on the parchment paper.
- Decorate: While the coating is still soft, drizzle each ball with the melted red candy melts and sprinkle with red and green sanding sugar for a festive finish.
- Set: Allow the cake balls to cool and the candy coating to harden completely before serving.
Notes
- Extra Festive Look: Use a fork to drizzle red and green candy melts in a crisscross pattern over the coated balls for added color.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
