Delight in these rich and creamy chocolate truffles, perfect for any occasion.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and crushed chocolate cookies until well blended.
Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing.
Shape the mixture into small balls, about the size of a walnut, and place them on a tray lined with wax paper.
Use a small cookie scoop for uniform sizes.
Chill the balls in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Chilling helps the truffles hold their shape during coating.
Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
Be careful not to overheat the chocolate to avoid burning.
Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated, and place back on the wax paper to set.
Use a fork to lift the truffles out of the chocolate for a smooth coating.
Allow the coated truffles to set completely before serving.
Place the truffles in the refrigerator to speed up the setting process.
