Ingredients

For the Truffle center:
  • 4 ounce cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
For the Coating:
  • 16 ounce Ghirardelli white chocolate wafers divided
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 Tablespoons cinnamon/sugar mixture

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and butter with sugars until smooth and creamy. Beat in a flour, vanilla, salt, cinnamon and cream of tartar. Scoop by small tablespoon (I use a 1 Tbsp scoop) onto a parchment paper lined freezer safe baking sheet. Scoop all the dough into balls. Freeze for 2 hours (or overnight).
  2. Melt white chocolate wafers. Remove about 1/4 cup and reserve for later. To remaining melted white chocolate, add 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon. Using a toothpick, dip each frozen truffle into melted white chocolate, tapping side of bowl gently to remove excess. Repeat until all truffles have been dipped. Using remaining 1/4 cup white chocolate, pour into a ziploc sandwich bag.
  3. Snip off end and drizzle over coated truffles. Sprinkle immediately with cinnamon/sugar mixture. Allow to set, about 15 minutes. Store truffles in refrigerator for one week, or freezer for one month.

Notes

  • Be sure to heat treat flour before using!
  • I love using this metal cookie scoop for evenly sized truffles.
  • You can prepare the cookie dough ahead of time and store the balls in the freezer until you're ready to make truffles.
  • If storing longer than a few hours, transfer frozen cookie dough balls from the baking pan to a freezer safe container to preserve freshness.
  • I store Snickerdoodle Cookie Dough Truffles in the refrigerator. They're delicious cold!
  • For longer storage, keep the truffles in the freezer!
