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.

    I love these! I’m a little late in the game, but wanted to know how much printer ink this uses.

      Thank you! I wish I could tell you, but I’m really not sure the exact amount. I’m sure it also varies depending on the printer!

    I am having trouble finding the Gingerbread boys. What store did you buy them from? Tried Target and Kroger…thank you for such cute ideas!

    1. chelseamessyapron says:

      I actually did find them at Kroger (Smiths). Maybe you could try Wal-Mart? Sorry you’re having a hard time finding them!

    WOW! It’s cool idea! I’m from Ukraine, I will definitely make my family on holiday such a surprise! But I do not know where I’ll find Hersheyโ€™s Kisses because this is not sold in my country((

    1. chelseamessyapron says:

      Thank you so much! Is it possible for you to order them online? I’m not sure what else could replace the kisses for that one; sorry! Maybe just some chocolate candies?

  10. Trena says:

    Just ordered ALL of the Christmas bag toppers. This is going to be a great addition to the gift baskets I am making this year. Do you have one that reads ‘Something for your Mistletoes?’ Or something to that effect?

    1. chelseamessyapron says:

      Awesome! I’m sure the gift baskets will look amazing! I don’t have one that has mistletoe, but that’s a great idea ๐Ÿ™‚
