Equipment

  • large mixing bowl
  • Electric mixer
  • medium bowls
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper

Ingredients

  • 6 cups powdered sugar
  • 8 ounces cream cheese room temp
  • 1 tablespoon lime jello mix
  • 1 tablespoons cherry jello mix
  • ½ cup sugar

Instructions

  • In a large bowl add the cream cheese and powdered sugar, mix using a hand mixer until everything comes together. If the mixture is still sticky add powdered sugar until it is no longer sticky (slightly sticky is okay) and you can form some of it into a ball.
  • Divide the mixture into two separate bowls, add the cherry jello powder to one bowl and the lime to the other.
  • Mix until completely mixed together and no white streaks show, make sure to clean off the beaters before mixing the other color so you don’t mix colors.
  • Line a tray with parchment paper.
  • Grab 1/2 an inch worth of one of the mixtures and roll it into a ball, slightly flatten out using your thumb and then dip each side in the sugar.
  • Place on the parchment paper and repeat until you have none left.
  • Refrigerate until you are ready to eat. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
  • You can make these slightly bigger if you’d like it will just make less.
  • You may need to add another cup or more of powdered sugar, add powdered sugar until you are able to pinch off pieces and roll into balls. Almost play doh texture.
  • The cream cheese must be room temp or it will not work.
