Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (16 ounce) package pre-made soft sugar cookies (or Lofthouse style cookies)
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 12 ounces white melting wafers or white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother coating)
Instructions
- Place the sugar cookies into a food processor. Pulse until the cookies form fine crumbs. If you do not have a food processor, place cookies in a large zip-top bag and crush them thoroughly with a rolling pin.
- Transfer the cookie crumbs to a medium mixing bowl. Add the softened cream cheese. Mix with a sturdy spoon or clean hands until the mixture is completely combined and forms a thick dough.
- Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Chill the cookie balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm them up. This step prevents them from falling apart when dipping.
- Melt the white chocolate or melting wafers in a microwave-safe bowl according to package directions, stirring every 30 seconds. If using, stir in the coconut oil for a thinner consistency.
- Dip each chilled truffle into the melted coating, ensuring it is fully covered. Use a fork to lift the truffle out, tapping the fork gently against the side of the bowl to remove excess coating.
- Return the coated truffles to the parchment-lined baking sheet. Immediately decorate with festive sprinkles, if desired.
- Allow the chocolate coating to set completely at room temperature, or speed up the process by chilling them for another 15 minutes.
Notes
- For a different flavor, you can use chocolate or peanut butter flavored cookies instead of sugar cookies.
- If the truffle dough feels too soft after mixing, chill it for 15 minutes before rolling.
- Store leftover sugar cookie truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
