Winter Wonderland Truffles ❄️💙✨
Dreamy, creamy, and beautifully enchanting, these Winter Wonderland Truffles bring pure seasonal magic in every bite. Silky white-chocolate filling, tinted frosty blue and rolled in snowy coconut, makes these truffles as stunning as they are delicious. Perfect for holiday parties, gifting, or adding sparkle to any dessert table!
Ingredients
- 2 cups white chocolate (chips or chopped)
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Blue gel food coloring
- 1 cup shredded coconut (for coating)
Instructions
1. Make the Filling:
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in 20-second intervals, stirring between each until completely smooth. Let cool slightly.
Beat the softened cream cheese in a separate bowl until smooth. Pour in the melted white chocolate and mix until fully combined and silky. Add vanilla extract and a tiny amount of blue gel coloring, mixing until you reach a frosty winter-blue shade.
2. Chill the Mixture:
Cover and refrigerate the mixture for 30–40 minutes, or until firm enough to scoop.
3. Shape the Truffles:
Place shredded coconut in a shallow dish. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the chilled mixture and roll into smooth balls. Immediately roll each truffle in coconut to create a snowy coating.
4. Chill and Serve:
Place the truffles on a parchment-lined tray and chill for another 20 minutes to fully set. Serve cold or at room temperature.
Tips for Success
- Use gel coloring, not liquid, to avoid thinning the chocolate mixture.
- For extra winter sparkle, add a pinch of edible glitter or shimmer dust.
- If the mixture gets too soft while rolling, chill again for 10 minutes.
Serving Ideas
Arrange in mini cupcake liners for gifting, serve on a frosted platter for holiday parties, or pair with hot chocolate or peppermint tea for the coziest winter treat.
