Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup freeze-dried raspberries, crushed

Coating and Toppings

  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • Optional: 1/4 cup crushed graham crackers

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Raspberry Cheesecake Base: Soften the cream cheese at room temperature for easy mixing. In a bowl, combine the cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the crushed freeze-dried raspberries to infuse flavor and color.
  2. Shape the Truffles: Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, portion the mixture into 1-inch balls. Place them on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  3. Melt the White Chocolate: Gently melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, stirring often to keep the chocolate smooth and glossy without overheating.
  4. Coat the Truffles: Dip each chilled truffle into the melted white chocolate until fully covered. Let excess drip off, then place back on parchment. Optionally, roll or sprinkle with crushed graham crackers or additional freeze-dried raspberry powder while the coating is still wet.
  5. Final Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the coated truffles for at least 1 hour to allow the chocolate to fully set. Serve chilled for the best creamy and flavorful experience.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese to prevent lumps and ensure smooth mixing.
  • Freeze-dried raspberries are essential for intense flavor without adding moisture.
  • Chill truffles before dipping to help coating adhere and avoid melting.
  • Melt chocolate gently to avoid graininess and preserve lustrous finish.
  • Work quickly when dipping, as chocolate can set fast.
  • Skip graham crackers or use gluten-free versions for gluten-free diet compatibility.
  • You can substitute cream cheese for a plant-based alternative to make a dairy-free version.
