Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 box Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes (5 cakes)
  • 8 ounces white chocolate or candy melts
  • 3 tablespoons festive sprinkles For mixing in the truffles
  • 3 tablespoons red candy melts (for drizzling, optional) Optional decoration
  • to taste green sanding sugar For decoration

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Unwrap the Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes and place them in a large bowl.
  2. Mix the cakes together with a handheld mixer until a crumbly dough forms. Stir in the sprinkles.
  3. Using a tablespoon, scoop the dough and roll it between the palms of your hands. Place each ball on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat until all the dough is rolled.
Dipping
  1. Melt the white chocolate or candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler.
  2. Using a fork or a dipping tool, dip each chilled cake ball into the melted white chocolate, coating it completely. Let the excess chocolate drip off and return each ball to the baking sheet.
  3. Melt the red candy melts in a piping bag or a ziplock bag in the microwave at 30-second intervals. Knead the bag between each round to ensure the melts are fully melted.
  4. Snip the edge of the ziplock or piping bag and drizzle the red candy melts over the truffles. Top with green sanding sugar and place them in the fridge for a few minutes to set.

Notes

To keep your truffles fresh, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They should last for about a week. Chill truffles before dipping to maintain their shape. Customize with different colored sprinkles or candy melts.
