Description
Make festive, bite-sized King Cake truffles with a hint of bourbon, perfect for your next Mardi Gras celebration.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (14-oz.) package Golden Oreos
- 1 (8-oz.) block cream cheese, softened
- 2 Tbsp. bourbon
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 Tbsp. coconut oil
- Gold, purple, and green sanding sugar
Instructions
- Add Oreos to a food processor and crush to fine crumbs. Pour crumbs into a large bowl. Add cream cheese and bourbon. Stir until the mixture combines well.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a small cookie scoop to form the mixture into small balls. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet and freeze for about 30 minutes until slightly hardened.
- Combine chocolate chips and oil in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Melt in 30-second intervals. Use a fork to dip the frozen balls into the melted chocolate. Place the coated balls back on the baking sheet.
- Sprinkle the tops with sanding sugar. Refrigerate for 20 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
Notes
- These truffles capture the spirit of King Cake in a small, indulgent format.
- The bourbon adds depth to the classic King Cake flavor profile.
