These Easy Reindeer Cakes are a quick and easy no bake holiday treat that the kids will be begging to make with you over and over again! Made with Ding Dong Cakes, pretzels, and candy in just 15 minutes!

Ingredients  


Instructions

  • Unwrap the cakes and place them on a clean, flat surface.
    10 Hostess Ding Dong Cakes
  • Apply cookie icing to the bottom back of two pretzel twists and adhere to the top of the cakes to create the antlers.
    1 tablespoon cookie icing, 20 mini twist pretzels
  • Add dots of cookie icing to two candy eyes and gently press them into the center of the cakes just below the antlers.
    1 tablespoon cookie icing, 20 candy eyes
  • Add icing to the flat side of a chocolate wafer and then press it into the lower top portion of the cake.
    1 tablespoon cookie icing, 10 chocolate melting wafers
  • Stick an M&M to the top of the chocolate wafer with cookie icing. Repeat for the remaining cakes.
    10 M&M's, 1 tablespoon cookie icing

Notes

  • Let the cakes set for at least 30 minutes for the icing to firm up so the decorations don't slide off.
  • I do not recommend sticking the pretzels in the cake as it will cause the cake to crack and fall apart.
  • Use your favorite kind of m&m's.
  • The chocolate melting wafers can be omitted and you can just use an m&m to create the nose if desired.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, after that time, the cakes may start to dry out or go stale.
  • A small amount of melted chocolate may be used in place of icing to adhere the decorative ingredients.
