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!)

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
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.

CUTEST PROJECTS EVER!!!
Any way you could call the Grinch Pills something else more appropriate for kiddos? Grinch Bites, Snacks, Vitamins, Morsels, Munchies, Nibbles? I would like to make these for my first graders.
THANKS!!!

Thanks Wendy! Unfortunately these are the final designs that I paid for (I didn’t create them!) so those can’t be changed. Hopefully one of the others will work!
When I click on the link for the free printable it doesn’t download. It opens a label that I can print. I love them, but can’t get them to download. ๐
Hi Lorri! Have you tried a different browser?
These are adorable!!! You are ah-mahzing!!!?????
Awe love you Sara! Thank you so much ๐
WOW thank you so much
You’re so welcome Maggie! Merry Christmas!
Can you tell me what was the actual size of the printables? Thanks!
They are the same width as a standard snack-size zip-lock bag. Enjoy!
How do get free printables
You click the “Click Here” text under each picture that says “Free Printable: Click Here”
I love these ideas. Great for tops of presents or sitting on the Christmas tree!!!
Thanks Charlotte! ๐
I would love the Mrs. Claus one but it is spelled with a K. It would go perfect with the Santa hat Hershey Kisses. Can it be changed?
I’m sorry, it can’t be changed. I hired a professional design team to make these so I don’t have access to change the images. The intention was to have a type of alliteration “Klaus” and “kisses” Sorry about that!
can you send me the free printables
If you click on the link in the post you will have them on your computer ๐ Enjoy!
This is great. Can you please share the dimensions for the printables as I plan to use it for another festive occasion. Thanks.
