It’s that time of year. Are you a Little Debbie Christmas tree snack cake fan? We usually stalk the grocery store right around Halloween to see when the trees arrive.
Are you the type that purchases boxes right at the beginning of the season or do you buy them throughout? This Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cake Dip is a simple dip that you can make with the popular Christmas snack cakes. Using 4 simple ingredients, you have a crowd-pleasing appetizer or even dessert for the holidays.
Recipe Notes:
- Store in an airtight container, for up to 3 days.
- Using extract is completely optional but it does bring out the flavors in the snack cakes.
- Do not mix the cool whip in the food processor- this will cause it to fall flat. You will want to just gently fold the cool whip into the mix so the dip will stay nice and airy.
- If you do not have a food processor, no worries, you can use a handheld mixer as well.
- Place dip in the center of a large tray or plate and add all your favorite Christmas cookies, Graham crackers, and even vanilla wafers to the plate so you can use as dippers.
- Now I know that the Christmas tree snack cakes are only around during the holidays, but Little Debbies also have many other snack cakes that you can create this fun dip with throughout the year.
full list of ingredients and steps are in the recipe card at the bottom of the post.
