Ingredients
Scale
Truffle Base
- 2 cups (200g) sugar cookie crumbs (about 12 sugar cookies)
- 4 tablespoons (57g) cream cheese, softened
Coating and Decoration
- 2 cups (340g) white chocolate melting wafers or candy melts
- Sprinkles for decoration (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Cookie Crumbs: Place sugar cookies in a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs. If you don’t have a food processor, place cookies in a large resealable plastic bag and crush them evenly with a rolling pin until finely ground.
- Mix with Cream Cheese: In a medium bowl, combine the sugar cookie crumbs with softened cream cheese. Mix thoroughly until the mixture can be shaped into balls and holds together well.
- Form the Truffles: Using a small scoop or spoon, portion the mixture and roll into 1-inch balls. Arrange the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy handling.
- Chill: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to firm up the truffles, making them easier to dip and handle.
- Melt the White Chocolate: While the truffles chill, melt the white chocolate melting wafers according to the package instructions until smooth and fully melted.
- Dip the Truffles: Once firm, dip each truffle into the melted white chocolate, coating them completely. Return the coated truffles to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Decorate: Immediately sprinkle the dipped truffles with sprinkles of your choice before the chocolate sets to add a festive touch.
- Set and Serve: Allow the chocolate to fully set at room temperature or speed up the process by refrigerating the truffles for 10-15 minutes. Once set, serve or store in an airtight container for freshness.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
- If you prefer a firmer truffle, chill mixture longer before shaping.
- Use high-quality white chocolate melting wafers for a smooth coating and best flavor.
- Sprinkles are optional, but add a fun decorative element.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
