Ingredients
2 cups Vanilla Wafers, crushed
8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
1 package Banana Pudding Mix, instant
1 cup White Chocolate Melts
1/4 cup Freeze-Dried Bananas, crushed
1/4 cup Pastel Sprinkles
Instructions
- Place the vanilla wafers into a food processor and pulse until they reach a fine, sandy consistency
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then fold in the cookie crumbs and banana pudding mix until a thick dough forms
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least thirty minutes
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions and roll them into smooth balls or oval egg shapes
- Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in thirty-second intervals, stirring until smooth
- Dip each truffle into the chocolate, let the excess drip off, and immediately top with sprinkles or crushed bananas
- Arrange the truffles on a parchment-lined tray and chill for another twenty minutes until the chocolate shell is firm
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for smooth mixing.
For a lower-sugar version, use Neufchatel cheese.
Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
