Delightful Blue Christmas Truffles

Enjoy Delightful Blue Christmas Truffles—rich, creamy, and perfect for holiday gifts or festive celebrations.

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese – softened this provides a rich and creamy base.
  • 12 oz white chocolate – chopped to facilitate melting and ensure a smooth mixture.
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar – to add sweetness without overwhelming the flavor.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract – enhances the overall flavor profile.
  • Blue food coloring – for that festive touch; adjust according to your desired shade.
  • Chocolate sprinkles or crushed cookies – for rolling the truffles adding texture and flavor.

Method
 

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients listed above. Ensure that your cream cheese is thoroughly softened to allow for easy mixing.
  2. Melt the White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the 12 oz of chopped white chocolate in increments of 30 seconds, stirring in between, until smooth.
  3. Mix the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened 8 oz of cream cheese, 1/4 cup of powdered sugar, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, and a few drops of blue food coloring. Stir until well combined and smooth.
  4. Combine the Mixtures: Pour the melted white chocolate into the cream cheese mixture and gently fold until fully incorporated. Adjust the blue food coloring to achieve your desired shade.
  5. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1-2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to scoop.
  6. Scoop the Truffles: Once chilled, use a small cookie scoop or teaspoon to scoop the mixture and roll it into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter).
  7. Coat the Truffles: Roll each truffle in chocolate sprinkles or crushed cookies until fully coated.
  8. Final Chill: Place the coated truffles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate again for about 30 minutes to set.
