How To Make Strawberry Cheesecake Truffles
These strawberry cheesecake truffles are easy 5-ingredient treats! They come with graham crumbs and cream cheese balled and dipped in white chocolate.
Serves:
Ingredients
- 1½cupsgraham cracker crumbs,(about 10 full sheet graham crackers)
- 4ozbrick-style cream cheese
- ⅓cupconfectioners’ sugar
- ⅓cupstrawberries,finely diced
- 10ozwhite chocolate,coarsely chopped
- 1dropred or pink food coloring,optional
Instructions
-
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
-
Using a handheld mixer or a food processor, mix the graham cracker crumbs, cream cheese, and confectioners’ sugar together to form 1 big clump.
-
With a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, stir in the strawberries. The mixture will be wet from the strawberries.
-
Drop balls (about 1.5 to 2 teaspoons of mixture per truffle) onto the lined baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
-
During this time, the truffles will “set” making them easier to roll into smooth balls. Roll into smoother balls after they’ve been refrigerated. Place back into the refrigerator while melting the chocolate.
-
Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler or the microwave*. (Alternatively, temper the chocolate.)
-
Dip each truffle completely into the chocolate using the spiral dipping tool or a fork. When lifting the ball out of the chocolate, remember to tap the dipping tool gently on the side of the bowl to allow excess chocolate to drip off.
-
Place balls back onto the baking sheet after you dip each one. Stir food coloring into any leftover white chocolate, then drizzle over truffles.
-
Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until chocolate has completely set before serving.
Recipe Notes
If using the microwave: place the chocolate in a medium heat-proof bowl. A liquid measuring cup makes it easier for dipping. Melt in 15-second increments in the microwave, stirring after each increment until completely melted and smooth.
