Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (16 ounce) package store-bought sugar cookies (or homemade)
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup white chocolate melting wafers (or milk/dark chocolate)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother dipping)
- Sprinkles, for decoration
Instructions
- Place the sugar cookies in a food processor and pulse until you have fine crumbs. If you do not have a food processor, place them in a sturdy plastic bag and crush them thoroughly with a rolling pin.
- Transfer the cookie crumbs to a medium bowl. Add the softened cream cheese.
- Mix the crumbs and cream cheese together using a spatula or clean hands until a uniform dough forms. If the mixture seems too dry, add cream cheese one teaspoon at a time until it holds together.
- Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Chill the cookie balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm them up.
- Melt the white chocolate wafers according to package directions. You can use a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval. Stir in the coconut oil if using.
- Dip each chilled cookie ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Let excess chocolate drip off.
- Immediately place the coated truffle back onto the parchment-lined sheet. While the chocolate is still wet, top with sprinkles.
- Allow the chocolate coating to set completely at room temperature or chill briefly for faster setting.
Notes
- If you prefer a fudge like cookie balls texture, use slightly less cream cheese.
- For a different flavor, substitute the white chocolate with milk or dark chocolate for coating.
- These make ahead dessert truffles store well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
