30 mins prepServes 16
Homemade Little Debbie Zebra Cakes are soft, cream-filled snack cakes coated in sweet white candy and decorated for any holiday or celebration. Easy to customize, freezer-friendly, and even better than the lunchbox classic.
Cake
2 Let the cake cool completely
3 Carefully cut in desired shapes.
4 Slice cake shapes in half horizontally with a sharp, serrated knife.
5 Cover and set aside.
Marshmallow Filling
8 Add the marshmallow and butter to a bowl of a mixer.
9 Beat on high until well blended.
10 Switch to low and beat in the vanilla and confectioner's sugar.
11 Switch to high and, with the mixer running, add enough cream to get a fluffy texture.
12 Beat on high for a minute or two or until light and fluffy.
Assembly
15 Spread an even layer of filling on the cut side of half of the cakes.
16 Top with the other half and press down gently.
17 Freeze for about 30 minutes.
Glaze
20 Melt the white chocolate and shortening together in the microwave in 1 minute increments. Stir often.
21 When the glaze is smooth and runny remove the cakes from the freezer.
22 Spoon the glaze evenly over the top of a cake and smooth with a knife, letting it run down and cover the sides.
23 Top with sprinkles.
24 Place in the refrigerator to harden and set.
