Description

This festive, no-bake dip combines the flavors of vanilla cake and cream cheese, creating a creamy, sweet treat that’s perfect for holiday gatherings. With sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, and a splash of green food coloring, it’s shaped like a Christmas tree for a fun, edible centerpiece!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup vanilla cake mix (no need to bake)
  • 1/2 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles
  • Green food coloring (optional)
  • Pretzel sticks or graham crackers for dipping

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
  • Add in the cake mix, vanilla extract, and whipped topping, mixing well until combined.
  • If you want a festive green color, add a few drops of green food coloring and mix until the dip is evenly colored.
  • Stir in mini chocolate chips and rainbow sprinkles for a fun texture and pop of color.
  • Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and use pretzel sticks or graham crackers for dipping.
  • Decorate the top of the dip with extra sprinkles and chocolate chips to resemble a Christmas tree shape, if desired.
  • Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors blend and the dip firm up slightly.

Notes

  • If you want a more vibrant green, feel free to add more food coloring.
  • You can customize the decorations on top to fit your style, such as using red and green sprinkles or candies.
  • For a lighter option, use fat-free whipped topping and reduced-fat cream cheese.
