Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (16 ounce) package soft, frosted sugar cookies (like Lofthouse style)
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 12 ounces white chocolate melting wafers
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or shortening (optional, for smoother coating)
- Sprinkles, for decoration
Instructions
- Place the entire package of frosted sugar cookies into a large bowl. Crush the cookies thoroughly until they form fine crumbs. You can use a food processor or your hands.
- Add the softened cream cheese to the cookie crumbs. Mix well with a spatula or clean hands until a uniform, thick dough forms.
- Roll the dough into small, one-inch balls. Place the balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Chill the cookie balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This step helps them firm up before dipping.
- Melt the white chocolate wafers according to package directions. If using, stir in the coconut oil or shortening for a thinner consistency.
- Dip each chilled truffle ball into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Use a fork or dipping tool to lift it out, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
- Immediately place the coated truffle back onto the parchment-lined sheet. While the chocolate is still wet, top with festive sprinkles.
- Return the finished sugar cookie truffles to the refrigerator until the chocolate coating is completely set.
Notes
- Using pre-frosted cookies adds extra sweetness and moisture, simplifying this no bake dessert recipe.
- If you prefer a different coating, milk or dark chocolate melting wafers work well too.
- Store these bite sized sweets in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
