Ingredients
Scale
Truffle Mixture:
- 1 1/2 cups (180 g) powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups (120 g) finely crushed vanilla wafers
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
- 1 teaspoon orange zest (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Coating and Decoration:
- 1 cup (200 g) white chocolate chips or candy melts
- Sprinkles
- Extra orange zest
Instructions
- Prepare the Truffle Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Stir in the orange juice concentrate, orange zest (if using), and vanilla extract.
- Add the crushed vanilla wafers and mix until a dough forms.
- Shape the Truffles: Scoop out small portions of the dough (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll them into smooth balls.
- Place the truffle balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.
- Melt the White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips or candy melts in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth and fully melted.
- Coat the Truffles: Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled truffle into the melted white chocolate, allowing the excess to drip off.
- Place the coated truffles back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Decorate (Optional): Immediately sprinkle the truffles with sprinkles or orange zest before the coating hardens.
- Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the truffles for 15-20 minutes to set the coating completely. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Notes
- For a stronger orange flavor, increase the amount of orange zest.
- Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
