Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups sugar cookies, finely crumbled
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 oz white chocolate chips
  • Sprinkles or colored sugar, for decorating (optional)

Instructions

  1. Crush the Sugar Cookies: Place your sugar cookies into a food processor or a sealed plastic bag and crush them until they form fine crumbs, which will serve as the base texture for the truffles.
  2. Mix with Cream Cheese and Vanilla: In a mixing bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with softened cream cheese and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture forms a smooth, moldable dough.
  3. Shape into Balls: Roll the dough into evenly sized balls about 1 inch in diameter using your hands or a small cookie scoop. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  4. Melt the White Chocolate: Gently melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave or double boiler, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
  5. Dip and Decorate: Using a fork or dipping tool, coat each chilled truffle ball in the melted white chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Quickly sprinkle with sprinkles or colored sugar before the chocolate sets.
  6. Let Set and Serve: Return the coated truffles to the parchment-lined tray and refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, about 15 minutes. Serve chilled or package as a gift.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for smoother mixing and better dough consistency.
  • Do not overprocess the cookies; aim for fine crumbs without turning them into powder.
  • Chilling the dough thoroughly makes shaping easier and prevents sticking.
  • If needed, thin melted chocolate with a small amount of coconut oil or shortening for smoother dipping.
  • Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness and texture.
