Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and powdered sugar. Mix until smooth.
- In a microwave, melt the white chocolate chips in short intervals, stirring each time until fully melted.
- Once the chocolate is melted, mix it with the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
- Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls, creating a larger ball for the body and a smaller one for the head.
- Place the truffles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for about one hour until firm.
Decoration
- Take the truffles out of the fridge and use melted white chocolate to coat each truffle, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
- While the chocolate is still wet, add decorations: use black edible markers or sprinkles for eyes and buttons, place small orange candies or icing for the nose, and a small round candy for the hat.
- Allow the truffles to sit until the chocolate hardens and decorations stay in place.
Serving
- Serve on a decorative plate or in a clear plastic bag tied with a ribbon. They also look great in cupcake liners.
Notes
Store your truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. They can be frozen for up to three months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
