Ingredients
Making these Christmas tree cake balls is as easy as 1-2-3. Here's what you'll need:

Green food coloring - for that classic Christmas tree color
Assorted candy decorations - think mini M&M's, sprinkles, and edible glitter
Lollipop sticks - these will help turn your cake balls into adorable cake pops
Instructions
1. Bake the cake
The first step is to prepare and bake the cake according to the instructions on the box. Once it's cooled, crumble it into fine crumbs in a large mixing bowl.
2. Add the frosting
Next, mix in the frosting with the cake crumbs until it forms a dough-like consistency. The frosting will act as the binder for the cake balls and add a touch of sweetness.
3. Add the food coloring
Now comes the fun part - adding the green food coloring to the cake mixture. Start with a few drops and mix it in, adding more until you reach your desired shade of green. You can even divide the mixture into different bowls and use different colors for a more colorful display.
4. Roll into balls
Using your hands, roll the cake mixture into small balls and place them on a lined baking sheet.
5. Decorate
This is where your creativity can shine. Poke a lollipop stick into each cake ball to turn them into pops, then use the assorted candy decorations to decorate your Christmas tree cake balls. You can even add a small candy star on top for the finishing touch.
