Ingredients
Scale
Truffle Mixture
- 2 cups baked sugar cookies, crumbled
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Coating and Decoration
- 12 ounces white chocolate, melted
- Sprinkles for decoration (optional)
Instructions
- Mix Truffle Base: In a large bowl, combine the crumbled sugar cookies, softened cream cheese, and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture thoroughly until it forms a smooth and uniform dough-like consistency.
- Shape Truffles: Roll the mixture into 1-inch diameter balls, then place them evenly spaced on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Chill the balls in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
- Melt White Chocolate: Place the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each session, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth, without any lumps.
- Dip Truffles: Using a fork or dipping tool, coat each chilled truffle completely in the melted white chocolate, letting any excess chocolate drip off to prevent clumps.
- Decorate: Place the coated truffles back onto the parchment paper. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle your choice of sprinkles over the truffles for a festive touch, if desired.
- Set and Serve: Allow the coated truffles to sit at room temperature or refrigerate until the chocolate hardens completely. Once set, serve these delicious treats and enjoy!
Notes
- Use baked sugar cookies for the best texture and flavor in the truffles.
- Ensure cream cheese is softened to mix smoothly with the cookie crumbs.
- White chocolate can be tempered if you want a glossy finish and snap, though melting as described works well for home preparation.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Sprinkles are optional and can be replaced with crushed nuts or cocoa powder for variation.
