Ingredients

  • 8 ounces brick-style cream cheese, softened
  • 12 large glazed donuts (see notes in post)
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup sprinkles

Instructions

  • Place the softened cream cheese into a large mixing bowl and use a handheld mixer to smooth the texture of the cream cheese. Beat until there are no lumps. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, crumble the donuts by hand. The crumbs should look like sand, with larger bits the size of peas, in there too.
  • Add the crumbled donuts to the bowl with the cream cheese and beat to combine.
  • Measure out a tablespoon of the mixture. Roll into balls and place on a parchment-lined baking tray. Once all of the balls are rolled, place the baking tray in the fridge for 30 minutes to frim up.
  • Place the white chocolate chips and the coconut oil into a microwave-safe bowl. On medium power, microwave the chocolate for 30 seconds. Remove and stir. Continue to microwave in 15 second increments on half powder until chocolate is smooth. Stir between each increment.
  • Working with chilled truffles, insert a toothpick about 1/3rd of an inch into the truffle. Dunk the truffle into the bowl of chocolate and gently move the toothpick in a circular motion so that the entire truffle is enrobed. Carefully lift the truffle out of the chocolate and slightly tap the toothpick on the rim of the bowl. The excess chocolate will fall back into the bowl.
  • Next, transfer the truffle to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Top with sprinkles.
  • Continue to coat all of the truffles in the melted white chocolate. Once done, transfer baking sheet to fridge until chocolate is firm.
  • Transfer to food safe container. Keep refrigerated.
