Ingredients
- 225 g Philadelphia Cream Cheese
- 60 g Salted Butter
- 170 g Powdered Sugar
- 150 g Graham Cracker Crumbs
- 100 g White Chocolate
- 1 tbs Vanilla Extract
- Cheesecake Truffle
- 225 g Philadelphia Cream Cheese
- 60 g Salted Butter
- 1 tbs Vanilla Extract
- 170 g Powdered Sugar
- Coating
- 150 g Graham Cracker Crumbs (put it in medium sized bowl)
- Glaze
- 100 g Baking White Chocolate (chopped)
- Make Cheesecake Truffles
- In a mixing bowl combine philadelphia cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
- Beat with mixer until smooth.
- Freeze 30 minutes to 1 hour or until cream is firm enough to handle.
- Make Cheesecake Balls
- With ice cream scoop, scoop one truffle from cream cheese mixture.
- Place truffle in the bowl with graham cracker crumbs.
- Roll truffle by applying light pressure with fingers until evenly covered with cracker crumbs.
- Place cheesecake truffle on a freezer safe plate.
- Repeat until all mixture is used.
If truffle mixture becomes too soft to handle put it back to freezer for another 15 minutes or until it is easy to handle.
- Make Glaze
- Place chopped white chocolate into microwave safe bowl.
- Microwave white chocolate for 1 minute until melted and smooth.
- Using batter spoon pour the chocolate glaze over the top of the truffle and let it run down the sides.
- Place plate with glazed truffles into freezer to set for 1 hour or until frozen.
- Store
- While still frozen, separate truffles from plate.
- Move truffle to plastic container.
- Wrap the container in cling wrap to protect truffles from absorbing flavors and aroma from other food from freezer.
If plastic container is deep you can store truffles in multiple layers separated by plastic wrap.
Cheeseccake truffles melt fast so they need to be stored in freezer until ready to enjoy.
- Serve
- Take truffles out of freezer only 15-30 minutes before serving time.
- While still frozen, take cheesecake truffles out of plastic container and arrange them on serving plate.
- Enjoy!
