Dip Ingredients
- 5 Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes (3 oz size) or 8 Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes (from 8.52 oz boxes)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 oz Cool Whip whipped topping, thawed
Garnish
- 1 Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cake
- Christmas tree sprinkles
Suggested Dippers

- Pretzels

Instructions
- Prepare Cream Cheese: Add the softened cream cheese to a mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer to beat it until it becomes smooth and creamy.
- Add Christmas Tree Cakes: Add five Christmas Tree Cakes if using the 3 oz size, or eight cakes if using the 8.52 oz boxes, into the bowl with the cream cheese.
- Incorporate Milk and Vanilla: Pour 1/4 cup of milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the mixture. Beat well with the hand mixer until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Add Whipped Topping: Gently fold in 8 oz of thawed Cool Whip whipped topping until combined. It’s okay if the mixture is slightly lumpy and not perfectly smooth.
- Chill: Transfer the dip into a serving bowl, cover it, and refrigerate until ready to serve to let the flavors meld and dip firm up.
- Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish the dip with one Christmas Tree Cake on top and sprinkle with Christmas tree sprinkles. Serve alongside your choice of dippers such as graham crackers, pretzels, and cookies.
Notes
- Use Graham crackers, Nilla wafers, pretzels, animal crackers, fruit slices, shortbread cookies, chocolate chip cookies, or Oreo cookies as dippers for variety.
- If using 3 oz cakes, use 6 total: 5 for the dip and 1 for garnish.
- If using 8.52 oz boxes, use 9 out of 10 cakes: 8 for the dip and 1 for garnish (extra cake can be eaten separately).
