Ingredients
Dip
- 5 Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes
- 8 oz cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 8 oz tub whipped topping (Cool Whip) thawed
Garnish
- red and green sanding sugar or sprinkles
Instructions
Chop cakes
- Unwrap the cakes and add them to a large food processor. Pulse several times, until the cakes turn into fine crumbs (they may stick together a bit).
Cup of Yum
Mix in dairy and vanilla
- To the food processor, add the cream cheese in cubes, then pour in the milk and vanilla extract. Pulse until combined and mostly smooth.
Transfer
- Transfer the cake mixture to a large mixing bowl, and add the whipped topping to the bowl.
- For the next step, choose which version of the dip you want to make (creamy or fluffy), and follow those instructions below. Then move on to the "garnish and serve" instructions.
** For Creamy Dip **
- If you want to make the creamy version of this dip, use a hand mixer and beat the cake mixture and whipped topping together on low speed, until smooth and creamy. You can add a splash or two of additional milk to get the creaminess and consistency you want.
** For Fluffy Dip **
- If you want to make the fluffy version of this dip, use a rubber spatula to fold the cake mixture and whipped topping together until well combined.
Garnish and serve
- Transfer dip to a serving bowl and garnish with desired sprinkles and garnishes. Serve with desired dippers and enjoy!
Notes
- This recipe makes approximately 2 cups of dip, which I've estimated will serve 8 (with each person getting about 1/4 cup of dip). But of course you're free to divide the dip up into as many servings as you'd like.
