Instructions

Prepare the crust: Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan or line the bottom with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until the mixture is evenly combined. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the springform pan to form an even crust layer. Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
Mix the cheesecake filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then mix thoroughly until fully blended. Gently fold in the chopped Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes cubes, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the cream cheese mixture.
Whip the cream: In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cheesecake filling to maintain a light and airy texture without deflating the mixture.
Assemble the cheesecake: Pour the combined filling over the chilled graham cracker crust. Spread it evenly and smooth the top with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to allow the cheesecake to set properly.
Garnish and serve: Before serving, decorate the cheesecake with extra chopped Christmas Tree Cakes, dollops of whipped cream, and festive red and green sprinkles to enhance the holiday spirit and presentation. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

This cheesecake is a no-bake recipe, so chilling time is essential for a firm and creamy texture.
You can substitute the graham cracker crust with crushed Christmas Tree Cakes for an extra festive twist and flavor.
Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened for smooth mixing without lumps.
Use chilled bowls and beaters for whipping the heavy cream to achieve stiff peaks efficiently.
