Ingredients
  

For the Crust:

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted

For the Cheesecake Filling:

  • 16 oz cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream cold
  • 6 Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes chopped

For the Topping:

  • Whipped cream
  • Additional Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes halved (for garnish)
  • Red and green sprinkles

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust:

  • In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create an even crust. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.

Make the Cheesecake Filling:

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  • In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
  • Fold in the chopped Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes, being careful not to overmix to maintain texture.

Assemble the Cheesecake:

  • Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
  • Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until the cheesecake is firm and set.

Decorate and Serve:

  • Before serving, top the cheesecake with swirls of whipped cream, halved Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes, and a generous sprinkle of red and green sprinkles.
  • Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice, and serve.

Notes

  • For a sweeter crust variation, swap the graham crackers for crushed vanilla sandwich cookies.
  • Add an extra festive touch by drizzling melted white chocolate over the cheesecake before adding the toppings.
