Instructions
- 1. Bring the cream cheese and butter to room temperature until softened.
- 2. Blend all ingredients except white chocolate using a hand mixer for the smoothest results. Stirring with a fork works too but won’t be as creamy.
- 3. Spread the mixture into a small container or freeze for a few minutes until firm enough to scoop into balls.
- 4. Use a mini cookie scoop to form balls and place them on a parchment-lined plate. Freeze until firm.
- 5. If using, melt the white chocolate and stir in ½ teaspoon of oil for a smoother coating.
- 6. Dip each truffle in the melted chocolate and place back on the parchment paper. Allow to set.
- 7. Once the chocolate has hardened, cut each truffle in half for bite-sized treats.
- 8. Store in the refrigerator or freezer for freshness.
