Crisp sugar cookie crumbs meet cream cheese and chocolate in this quick, delightful no-bake sweet.
# What You'll Need:
→ Truffle Base
01 -
200 g sugar cookies, finely crushed
02 -
100 g cream cheese, at room temperature
→ Coating and Finish
03 -
50 g dark chocolate, for coating
04 -
50 g cocoa powder, for dusting
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Place the sugar cookies in a zip-top bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin or process in a food processor until uniform.
02 -
Transfer the crumbs to a mixing bowl. Add the room temperature cream cheese and mix until the mixture is smooth and fully combined, with no dry spots remaining.
03 -
Scoop out approximately one tablespoon of mixture and roll into evenly sized balls using your hands. Place the formed balls onto a tray or plate.
04 -
Refrigerate the shaped truffles for 30 minutes to firm up and facilitate coating.
05 -
Melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler or microwave in short intervals. Using a fork or spoon, dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring a complete coating. Place coated truffles back onto the plate.
06 -
Once the chocolate has set, dust the truffles with cocoa powder using a fine mesh sieve for an even, elegant finish.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Using room temperature cream cheese ensures a smoother mixture and easier blending.
02 -
Quality dark chocolate with a minimum of 50% cocoa content provides balance to the sweetness of the cookie base.
03 -
Chilling is essential to prevent the truffles from becoming too soft during coating.
04 -
These truffles can be personalized with optional add-ins such as finely chopped nuts, dried fruit, or flavour extracts.
