Tree Cake Dessert Dip (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 16 ounces whipped topping (Cool Whip works great), defrosted
02 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
03 - 8 ounces cream cheese, brought to room temperature
04 - ⅓ cup milk, straight from the fridge
05 - 8 Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes (you'll need roughly 1½ boxes)

→ Topping

06 - Festive sprinkles for garnish

# Instructions:

01 - Unwrap 7 of the Christmas Tree Cakes and keep one aside for decorating later. Save that last one for later.
02 - Tear those 7 cakes into chunks in a big mixing bowl. Toss in the softened cream cheese, the cold milk, and vanilla.
03 - Grab your hand mixer (or stand mixer if you prefer) and beat the mixture on medium until it's smooth with no lumps left.
04 - Carefully mix the thawed whipped topping into your bowl using a rubber spatula. Combine it slowly until it's mixed well.
05 - Transfer your mix into the serving dish, cover it up, and chill it in the fridge until you're ready to eat.
06 - Before serving, sprinkle some holiday-themed toppings on the dip and place that last whole Christmas Tree Cake in the middle to wow your guests!

# Notes:

01 - Pairs great with graham crackers, vanilla cookies, or fresh fruits for dipping.
02 - You can prep it the day before, just wait to add sprinkles or decorations until right before serving.
