Strawberry Truffles
These Strawberry Truffles are an easy no bake treat made with grain-free cookies, cashew butter and coated with dairy-free white chocolate. They make a simple and fun way to enjoy the classic strawberry shortcake.
Ingredients
- 4 ounces dairy-free cream cheese , softened
- 20 grain-free crunchy cookies , we like Hu's Kitchen Snickerdoodles, Simple Mills Crunchy Cinnamon Cookies or Catalina Crunch Vanilla Creme Sandwich Cookies
- 8 ounces dairy-free white chocolate , coarsely chopped
Optional filling
- 3 fresh strawberries finely chopped, OR 1/3 cup freeze-dried strawberries
Toppings:
- 2 tablespoon crushed freeze-dried strawberries
- 1 grain-free crunchy cookies , we like Hu's Kitchen Snickerdoodles, Simple Mills Crunchy Cinnamon Cookies or Catalina Crunch Vanilla Creme Sandwich Cookies
Instructions
-
Place the cookies in a food processor. Add dairy-free cream cheese and pulse until a dough forms.
-
Refrigerate for 20 minutes if the dough is too soft.
-
Line two baking sheets or flat plates/tray with parchment paper. Set aside.
Using a measuring spoon, scoop out 1/2 tablespoon of oreo mixture. Roll into a ball and flatten. Add 1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon of finely chopped strawberries. Scoop another 1/2 tablespoon of Oreo mixture on top and roll into balls.
-
Place truffle on the prepared plate and immediately freeze each truffle as you form them. Repeat with the rest of the truffles and add to the plate in the freezer.
-
On a double boiler, melt chocolate according to package directions.
-
Remove 1 truffle from the freezer at a time - try to use the truffle you froze first. Pick up truffle with a fork and dip in melted chocolate, gently tapping your hand holding the fork to remove excess chocolate..
-
Place on the other lined baking sheet - use a toothpick to help remove truffle from fork if needed. Top with sprinkles and crushed oreo cookies while the chocolate is still wet.
-
Immediately refrigerate truffles as you work with them for at least 10 minutes so the chocolate sets. Repeat with the remaining truffles.
-
Store in fridge until ready to serve up to 5 days.
