Description

Creamy Lemon Truffles are indulgent bites filled with a zesty lemon cream and coated in white chocolate, perfect for a sweet snack or dessert.


Ingredients

  • 8 oz Cream Cheese
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Zest
  • 8 oz White Chocolate
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Nuts or Coconut Flakes (optional)


Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  3. Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
  4. Form the chilled mixture into 1-inch balls.
  5. Dip each truffle in the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off. Optionally, roll in chopped nuts or coconut flakes.
  6. Place the truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 1 hour to set.
  7. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

For a truffle bar, set up a station with various toppings like crushed nuts, sprinkles, and coconut flakes for customization.
