Samantha's Notes:

If you're looking for a break from your run of the mill oreo truffles try these little delights =)
Note: not my recipe but too yummy not to share.

 

Directions

1
Pour white chocolate chips into a mixing bowl, set aside.
2
Melt butter along with orange zest in a small saucepan. Stir in cream and scald mixture.
3
Pour hot cream mixture through a fine mesh sieve over white chocolate chips and using a rubber spatula press zest against sieve to release orange oils into mixture.
4
Allow mixture to rest 1 minute, add orange extract and food coloring to white chocolate chip mixture then stir until smooth.
5
Cover mixture and refrigerate 2 hours or until firm enough to handle. Scoop mixture out by heaping teaspoon fulls and form into balls then roll in powdered sugar.
6
Freeze truffles 20 minutes then enjoy. Store truffles in refrigerator as they will soften at room temperature or freeze for up to 1 month.
