Ingredients

For the Crust:

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • cup butter melted

For the Cheesecake Filling:

  • 4 8-ounce blocks cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream

For the Middle Layer:

  • 1 5-count box Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes

For the Ganache Topping:

  • 8 ounces white chocolate chopped
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • Store-bought red decorating icing for drizzling
  • Green sanding sugar

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Stir until evenly coated, then press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Pop it in the fridge to chill while you make the filling.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  • In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.
  • Spread half of the cheesecake mixture evenly over the chilled crust.
  • Arrange the Christmas Tree Cakes in a single layer across the top, pressing them gently into the filling.
  • Spread the remaining cheesecake mixture over the top, smoothing it out with a spatula.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours (or overnight) until fully set and firm.
  • When ready to decorate, heat the heavy cream in the microwave until just steaming. Pour it over the chopped white chocolate and let it sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy. Allow to cool slightly.
  • Pour the white chocolate ganache over the chilled cheesecake and smooth the top.
  • Drizzle with red decorating icing in a zigzag pattern and sprinkle green sanding sugar evenly on top for that classic Christmas Tree Cake look.
  • Chill for another 30 minutes to set the topping before slicing and serving.
