I am sure they are the same as say, a zebra cake, but there is something about those red stripes and green sprinkles on top that makes you want to eat an entire case in one sitting…

…or is that just me?

DIPPER IDEAS!

This dip is so good you could just eat it with a spoon! But, that is frowned upon at gatherings… SO here are some ideas of things you can provide for your guests!

  • Graham Crackers or Teddy Grahams
  • Sugar or Chocolate Chip Cookies
  • Nilla Wafers (one of my favs!)
  • Pretzels (for a salty sweet option)
  • Fresh fruit (to make you feel like you are being healthy)

FAQs and TIPS!

CAN I MAKE THIS DIP AHEAD OF TIME?

I wouldn’t recommend making it over a day a head of time, BUT it should be okay to make a few hours before you plan to serve.

CAN I USE OTHER LITTLE DEBBIE CAKES?

Of course! I personally love using the chocolate Christmas tree cakes!
