Delicate orange-infused truffles blend cream cheese, vanilla, and white chocolate for a vibrant, sweet treat.

# Needed Ingredients:

→ Base Mixture

01 - 240 g vanilla wafer crumbs
02 - 226 g cream cheese, softened
03 - 120 g powdered sugar
04 - 60 ml orange juice
05 - 1 tablespoon orange zest
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

→ Coating

07 - 170 g white chocolate chips
08 - 15 ml coconut oil

→ Finishing

09 - Powdered sugar for dusting

# Preparation Steps:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, blend vanilla wafer crumbs, softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla extract until a smooth and uniform mixture forms.
02 - Cover and refrigerate the combined mixture for 30 minutes to firm up for easier handling.
03 - Portion and shape the chilled mixture into 2.5 cm balls using a small cookie scoop or hands. Arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
04 - Place white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth.
05 - Dip each truffle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring an even coating and allowing any excess to drip off. Return coated balls to the parchment-lined sheet.
06 - Immediately dust each coated truffle with powdered sugar while the chocolate is still wet. Refrigerate for at least 60 minutes until fully set before serving.
