Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 12 sugar cookies (about 2 1/2 inches in diameter)
- 4 tablespoons cream cheese (softened)
- 2 cups white chocolate melting wafers
- Sprinkles for decoration
Instructions
- Crush the Cookies: In a food processor, pulse the sugar cookies until fine crumbs form. If you don’t have a processor, place the cookies in a ziplock bag and crush them thoroughly using a rolling pin until they become fine crumbs.
- Mix with Cream Cheese: Add the softened cream cheese to the cookie crumbs in the food processor and pulse again until a dough forms. If the mixture feels too dry, add a teaspoon of milk to help bind it together.
- Form the Truffles: Use a cookie scoop or your hands to shape the dough into 1-inch diameter balls. Arrange the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze them for 15 minutes to firm up.
- Dip in Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate melting wafers in a microwave or double boiler until smooth. Using a fork, dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the coated truffles back on the baking sheet and immediately decorate with sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
- Serve or Store: Allow the truffles to set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Store the truffles in the fridge for up to one week or freeze them for longer preservation. Enjoy your festive treat!
Notes
- If you don’t have a food processor, use a ziplock bag and rolling pin to crush the cookies.
- Add a teaspoon of milk if the dough mixture feels too dry or crumbly.
- Use parchment paper on your baking sheet to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.
- Feel free to customize with different types of sprinkles for various holiday themes.
