Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 4 ounce cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon fresh orange zest
  • 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional Coating: White or orange candy melts for coating truffles

Instructions

1. Melt the Chocolate: Start by melting the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 20 seconds until the chocolate is smooth and completely melted.

2. Mix the Filling: In a separate bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, fresh orange zest, orange juice, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix the ingredients until the filling is smooth and well-incorporated.

3. Combine the Chocolate and Filling: Gently fold the melted white chocolate into the cream cheese mixture, making sure to fully incorporate the two components until they are well blended.

4. Chill the Mixture: Refrigerate the combined mixture for 30-60 minutes, or until it has firmed up enough to be easily scooped and rolled into balls.

5. Form the Truffles: Using a small spoon or cookie scoop, portion out the chilled mixture and roll it into bite-sized balls, creating the classic truffle shape.

6. Coat the Truffles (Optional): If desired, melt some white or orange candy melts and dip the truffles into the coating, allowing any excess to drip off. Place the coated truffles on a parchment-lined surface to set.

7. Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the Orange Creamsicle Truffles until they are firm, about 30 minutes to an hour. Serve chilled and enjoy the perfect balance of orange and creamy white chocolate in every bite.

Notes

Use High-Quality Ingredients: Opt for fresh, fragrant oranges and premium white chocolate for the best flavor and texture.

Achieve the Right Texture: Chilling the mixture for the recommended time is crucial for achieving the perfect, firm yet smooth truffle consistency that’s easy to roll.

Chill Thoroughly: Make sure to refrigerate the truffles for at least 30 minutes after forming them, and up to an hour for the best results.
