Ingredients
- 14 oz gingersnap cookies 1 bag; I used Archway Classics, Crispy Gingersnap Cookies
- 1 8 oz package cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 16 oz white chocolate chips
- cinnamon for garnishing
Instructions
- In a food processor, grind the cookies until small crumbs are formed.
- Add the softened cream cheese into the food processor and blend until the cream cheese and the cookie crumbs combine together into one ball of dough.
- Roll this dough into balls smaller than a golf ball.
- Place about ⅓ of your white chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for about 30 seconds, then stir. Microwave for another 30 seconds, and stir again. If the white chocolate is still not fully melted, microwave the chocolate again for a final 15-30 seconds until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Repeat this process each time you run out of white chocolate.
- Dip the gingerbread balls in the white chocolate, using a fork or spoon to turn them until they are fully coated in chocolate.
- When the truffles are coated, place them on a cooling rack. Sprinkle cinnamon over the top of each.
- Place the truffles in the fridge for at least an hour before enjoying.
Notes
- Copyright The Foreign Fork. For educational or personal use only.
- Gingersnap Cookies: I used Archway Classics, Crispy Gingersnap Cookies. You can use any gingersnap cookies but crispy cookies work best for this recipe.
- Cream Cheese: A full fat brick of cream cheese works best. Let it soften to room temperature to make mixing easier.
- White Chocolate Chips: You can use white chocolate chips, almond bark or white melting candy.
- Cinnamon: This is optional to sprinkle on top. You could also sprinkle cookie crumbs on top
- For easier dipping, allow your dough to chill for at least an hour before rolling it into balls. Allowing your mixture to cool will also make the chocolate on the exterior harden quickly.
- Be patient with your chocolate. Don’t try to heat up all your white chocolate at once or it may harden before you get the chance to use it.
- If you find your white chocolate is a bit too thick, try adding just a half a teaspoon of vegetable oil or coconut oil to your melted chocolate and mixing well. This will give it a smoother finish.
