Orange Creamsicle Truffle Bites
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| White chocolate, chopped or chips | 8 oz |
| Heavy cream | 1/4 cup |
| Orange zest | 1 tablespoon |
| Orange extract | 1/2 teaspoon (adjust to taste) |
| Powdered sugar (for coating) | 1 cup |
| Orange food coloring (optional) | As desired |
Instructions
- Place the white chocolate and heavy cream in a heatproof bowl. Melt using a double boiler or microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until completely smooth and creamy.
- Stir in the orange zest and orange extract until fully combined. Add a few drops of orange food coloring if you’d like a more vibrant creamsicle color.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 2–3 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to scoop and roll.
- Using about 1 tablespoon of mixture per truffle, roll into smooth balls. If the mixture becomes too soft, chill again briefly before continuing.
- Place the truffle balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Roll each truffle in powdered sugar until evenly coated. For a thicker, bakery-style finish, allow the first coating to set, then roll again.
- Refrigerate the coated truffles for at least 30 minutes before serving to help them firm up and set beautifully.
These creamy citrus truffles deliver that dreamy orange creamsicle flavor in a rich white chocolate bite. Keep them chilled for the best texture, and watch them disappear at parties, showers, and holiday gatherings.
