Ingredients needed to make little debbie christmas tree cake dip:
- 1 Box Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes = 5 cakes come in a box
- 1 8-oz. Package Cream Cheese
- 1-2 Tbsp Milk
- 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 8-oz. Tub Whipped Topping
- Red & Green Sprinkles, for garnish
- Nilla Wafer Cookies, Graham Crackers, or Fruit for Dipping
How to Make Christmas Dip:
Step One
Soften cream cheese. The easiest way to do this is just to set the cream cheese out on the counter and go watch your favorite Hallmark Channel Christmas Movie! When you return, the cream cheese will be at room temperature and ready to go!
Step Two
Blend cream cheese with vanilla flavoring, and cool whip on medium speed until smooth.
Step Three
Add milk and blend until the mixture is a smooth and creamy texture.
Step Four
Break up 4-5 of the Christmas tree cakes into chunks, toss in and blend.
This is where you can decide if you prefer the dip to be smooth or keep larger chunks of the cakes in the mix. It’s completely up to you.
I blended mine pretty thoroughly, but upon reflection, I think I would prefer the chunks in the mix.
Step Five
Add a few sprinkles for color and fold them in gently as they will try to bleed into the mix.
Transfer the blended Christmas cake dip into a pretty bowl and add more sprinkles on the top for an extra festive look.
Optionally top with an additional Christmas tree.
Refrigerate until serving.
Serve with graham crackers, animal crackers, vanilla wafers, or fresh fruit for dipping.

How to Store Christmas Tree Cake Dip
To store this dessert dip, cover it with plastic wrap or place it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days; although, if it’s at my house, it won’t last that long it’s so delicious.
If adding sprinkles, wait until just before serving the dip to your guests as the sprinkles will melt over time.
