Six Easy Christmas Gifts with simple-to-make (or store-bought) candies put in snack-size bags with free printable bag toppers to attach!

Tips for these Christmas Printables

  • Each bag has its own printable page so you won’t have to print more than what you’ll be using.
  • Print the bag toppers on glossy card stock paper for best results. I recommend downloading the free printable page(s) and then uploading it to a local print store to print on high-quality nice paper.
  • To make cutting and folding the printable much easier, use a good paper cutter and a scoring board.
  • Zip-loc® has the nicest-looking snack-size resealable bags, but any snack-size resealable bag will work.
  • Most of these gifts are best made only 1-2 days before gifting to keep the treats at optimal freshness. (Oreo truffles and any treats with marshmallows included have a short shelf life!)
  • If you would like to have these printed and shipped to you, click here to shop.
  • Do not print straight from the website file; make sure to first save it to your computer and then print. (If you’re still having issues, try a different browser, or feel free to drop me an email!)

Quick Tip

These printables were designed by the amazing CeeCeeBelle’s who we’ve collaborated with a few times here! (Check out these other printables and save them for upcoming holidays: Easter printables, Valentine’s printables, Halloween printables, St. Patrick’s Day Printables).

"Lumps of Coal" Mint Oreo Truffles

Any Oreo lover would love these "Lumps of Coal" Mint Oreo Truffles! They're easy to make and perfect for sharing with friends and family this Christmas season!
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 5 servings

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Microwave

Ingredients  

  • 18 Oreos
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 bag Andes Creme De Menthe Baking Chips

Instructions 

  • Blend 16 Oreos (no need to separate cookie from cream) in a blender until fine crumbs form. If the mixture is too wet, add two more Oreos. Pour into bowl.
  • Add softened cream cheese and mix with a hand mixer until a thick dough forms.
  • Roll dough into even-sized balls.
  • Microwave 1/2 cup Andes chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds, stir for 30 seconds, and microwave for another 15 seconds if they aren't fully melted.
  • Coat truffles in melted chocolate, shake off excess, and place on a parchment-lined sheet pan.
  • Repeat with remaining chocolate. (I don't melt all the chocolate at once because it tends to harden fast!)
  • Let truffles harden at room temperature before eating/placing in plastic bags.

  8. Amanda says:

    Since I like these templates, I was wondering if you could make one called Reindeer Nose Repair Kit or Rudolphโ€™s Spare Noses, so that I can use the red m&mโ€™s and either add the template to this pin or email me the template. I would greatly appreciate it.

    1. chelseamessyapron says:

      Hi Amanda! I love those ideas ๐Ÿ™‚ I didn’t actually design these; I hired a company to do that, but will definitely keep those in mind if I do another set of these toppers!!

      1. Amanda says:

        Oh, okay…well bummer lol. I researched on how I could use the red m&mโ€™s since the bag comes with green & red, and saw the Rudolphโ€™s spare noses or repair kit. I guess iโ€™ll see if I can use one of those templates…I just wanted to stick to the same design. Thanks for the reply!!

        1. chelseamessyapron says:

          You bet! I’ll be sure to email you if we add more ๐Ÿ™‚
