Gingerbread Truffles

Prep Time20 minsTotal Time20 mins

For the cookies:
 4 cups gingersnap cookies (about 275 grams)
 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
For the chocolate coating:
 10 ounces white chocolate
 1 gingersnap cookie, crushed
Method:
1

Add gingersnap cookies to a food processor and mix on low until crumbled. You can also transfer cookies to a large ziplock bag, seal the bag, and roll a rolling pin on top to crush them into crumbs.

2

Add cream cheese and mix on low until combined.

3

Use a small cookie scoop to take a tablespoon of the mixture and use your hands to roll it into balls. Place on a large half-sheet baking pan lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

4

Transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes.

5

Melt the white chocolate in a small bowl. You can melt it by placing the bowl on a steamer basket, over a small pot of boiling water, or melt it in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each increment until melted and smooth.

6

Dip each chilled ball into the melted white chocolate to fully coat and scoop it out with a fork allowing any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl. Place back on the lined baking sheet. Immediately sprinkle some crushed gingersnaps on top.

7

Place the coated truffles back into the fridge to allow the chocolate to set, about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
