Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 6 ounces melted white chocolate
  • 3/4 cup vanilla wafer cookie crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup good raspberry preserves
  • 3-4 dashes red food coloring (optional)
  • 1/2 cup crushed almonds

How To Make raspberry truffles

  • Step 1
    Prepare a cookie sheet by covering it with foil and spraying it with a nonstick cooking spray.
  • Step 2
    Place the cream cheese in a mixer bowl and beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Add the melted white chocolate and beat until combined and smooth.
  • Step 3
    Stir in the cookie crumbs, raspberry preserves, vanilla and food coloring. Cover and chill the mixture for an hour in refrigerator.
  • Step 4
    Remove from the refrigerator and shape into small balls. Finish by rolling in chopped nuts. Can be rolled in toasted coconut or powdered sugar if you like, but I would not recommend dipping in chocolate as the filling remains too soft for dipping.
  • Step 5
    Store in an airtight container and refrigerate.
