Little Debbie Cake Balls
Servings 48
Ingredients
- Two 5 count boxes vanilla Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes, crumbled
- 1 8 ounce package cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 16 ounce package white candy melts
- ¼ cup red candy melts melted (optional)
- Red and green colored sanding sugar
Instructions
- Prepare a baking sheet with waxed paper.
- In a large bowl, beat together the cakes and cream cheese until well mixed.
- Using a small cookie scoop, portion the cookie dough into 1-inch balls and roll into a smooth ball.
- Optional: For best results, freeze the truffle balls prior to decorating.
- Place the white candy melts into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the candy on high for 1 minute. Stir vigorously to allow the candy to continue melting with the residual heat. Return the candy to the microwave and heat in 15-second intervals, stirring well between each, until the candy mixture is smooth. If the candy melts are too thick, add up to 1 tablespoon of vegetable shortening or coconut oil and stir well.
- Dip each ball into the white candy melts and tap to remove the excess melted candy. Place the cookie ball on the prepared cookie sheet and immediately decorate with sprinkles.
- If desired, transfer the melted red candy into a piping bag with the corner snipped. Drizzle over the cookie balls.
- Place the cookie sheet in the refrigerator for about 1 hour or until firm. Keep stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container between layers of waxed paper.
