How to Make these Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes Truffles

Make sure to scroll down to the recipe card at the bottom of the page for the full step-by-step instructions! 

1. Unwrap each cake and put them all into a large bowl. Mash them together by using a stand mixer or electric hand mixer. Add in the sprinkles and mix again.
2. Line a cookie sheet or cutting board with parchment paper, wax paper, or a silicone mat.
3. Use a small cookie scoop or 1 tablespoon measuring spoon to take out the cake batter and roll it into 1-inch balls between the palms of your hands and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Place the truffles in the fridge. Put the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe mixing bowl and microwave it for two or three 30-second increments while stirring it in between.
5. Dip the truffles into the melted white chocolate using a dipping fork and place them back onto the baking sheets.
6. Put the red candy melts into a bowl and microwave it for a couple 30-second increments while stirring it in between. Then put that into a piping bag or Ziploc bag, cut off the tip, and drizzle it onto the truffles and add the green sugar sprinkles before the white chocolate cools and solidifies.
7. Put them in the fridge until it sets.

Recipe Pro Tip:

To help you get the red candy melt drizzle and sprinkles on in time before the white chocolate solidifies to room temperature, prepare them ahead of time. Have the candy melts in a bowl, your piping bag and scissors out, and have your sprinkles ready all before putting the white chocolate into the microwave.
