Ingredients
- 12 ounces Milk Chocolate Milano Cookies 2 packages
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 10 ounces chocolate melting wafers.
- Sprinkles optional
Instructions
- Add the cookies to a food processor and pulse until pebble-sized crumbs form.
- Add in the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla and process until fully combined.
- Use a medium cookie scoop to portion out the mixture and roll into balls with your hands and place on a parchment-line baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Melt the melting wafers in a wide mouthed glass on 30-second intervals, stirring between each one, until fully melted.
- Dip each ball in the chocolate and fully coat, use a fork to lift the ball out and scrape off any excess chocolate on the rim of the glass. Place the balls back on the parchment and allow to set.
- Top the balls with sprinkles before the chocolate hardens if using them.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- These truffles are lightly sweet with a bit of tanginess from the cream cheese. The powdered sugar can be increased to ½ cup total for a sweeter flavor.
- Sprinkles can be changed to match the season or holiday but you could also leave them off or top with flaked sea salt.
- If you don’t have melting wafers, you can use 2 cups of chocolate chips with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil.
- Room temperature cream cheese is easier to blend in the food processor.
- Ensure the truffles are well chilled before dipping.
- Use a double boiler or melt chocolate on low in the microwave, be sure not to overheat it.
