Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (16 ounce) package store-bought soft sugar cookies (like Lofthouse style)
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 12 ounces white chocolate melting wafers or white candy coating
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for thinning coating)
- Assorted sprinkles for decoration
Instructions
- Place the sugar cookies in a large bowl or food processor. Crush the cookies until they form fine crumbs. If using a food processor, pulse until fine. If using a bowl, crush them thoroughly with your hands or a rolling pin.
- Add the softened cream cheese and vanilla extract to the cookie crumbs. Mix with a sturdy spoon or your hands until the mixture is completely combined and forms a thick, uniform dough.
- Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the rolled balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Chill the cookie balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This step firms them up, making them easier to dip.
- Melt the white chocolate wafers according to package directions. If the coating is too thick, stir in the coconut oil one teaspoon at a time until you reach a smooth, dippable consistency.
- Dip each chilled cookie ball into the melted white chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off. You can use a fork or a dipping tool.
- Immediately place the coated truffle back onto the parchment-lined sheet. While the chocolate is still wet, top with your desired sprinkles.
- Allow the truffles to set completely at room temperature or chill briefly in the refrigerator until the coating hardens.
Notes
- For the creamiest filling, make sure your cream cheese is fully softened to room temperature before mixing.
- If you do not have store-bought cookies, you can use cooled, baked sugar cookies, but the texture will be slightly less soft.
- To make these ahead, store the finished truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
