Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients:

For the Fluff:

  • 6 Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes (vanilla or chocolate)
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip)
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup red and green sprinkles

For Garnish:

  • Crushed Christmas Tree Cakes
  • Additional sprinkles
  • Mini candy canes or edible glitter (optional)

Instructions

Preparation:

1: Prepare the Cream Cheese Base

  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.

2: Add the Whipped Topping

  1. Gently fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.

3: Chop the Cakes

  1. Chop the Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes into small, bite-sized pieces. Reserve a few pieces for garnish.

4: Combine the Fluff

  1. Add the chopped Christmas Tree Cakes, mini marshmallows, and red and green sprinkles to the cream cheese mixture.
  2. Gently fold everything together until evenly mixed. Be careful not to overmix, as you want to keep the cake pieces intact.

5: Chill the Fluff

  1. Transfer the fluff mixture to a serving bowl or individual dessert cups.
  2. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld and the fluff set.

6: Garnish and Serve

  1. Before serving, top with crushed Christmas Tree Cakes, additional sprinkles, mini candy canes, or a dusting of edible glitter for a festive touch.
  2. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Notes

  • Chill thoroughly: Refrigerating the fluff helps the flavors come together and gives the fluff its signature creamy texture.
  • Fold gently: When mixing in the cake pieces and marshmallows, use a light hand to keep the fluff soft and airy.
  • Fresh cakes work best: Use fresh Little Debbie cakes for the best texture and flavor.
  • Prep Time: 15 minutes (plus chilling time)
