Sugar Cookie Truffles
Sugar Cookie Truffles are soft, no-bake holiday treats made from sugar cookies, cream cheese, and festive sprinkles. They're perfect for gift-giving, cookie trays, or a quick and easy sweet treat during the Christmas season.
Ingredients

- 4 oz cream cheese softened
- 1 cup white chocolate chips or candy melts
- Sprinkles optional, for decorating
Instructions
Make the Dough:
- In a bowl, mix crushed sugar cookies and cream cheese until fully combined and dough-like.
Form the Truffles:
- Scoop and roll into 1-inch balls. Place on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 15–20 minutes.
Melt the Chocolate:
- Melt white chocolate chips or candy melts in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Dip and Decorate:
- Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, tapping off the excess. Place on tray and top with sprinkles if desired.
Chill to Set:
- Refrigerate for 15 minutes or until chocolate coating is firm.
