Orange Creamsicle Truffles

Ingredients

• White chocolate (chopped or chips) – 8 oz
• Heavy cream – 1/4 cup
• Orange zest – 1 tablespoon
• Orange extract – 1/2 teaspoon (adjust to taste)
• Powdered sugar (for coating) – 1 cup
• Orange food coloring (optional) – a few drops

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Truffle Base
Combine the white chocolate and heavy cream in a heatproof bowl. Melt using a double boiler or microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring in between, until smooth and fully blended.

Step 2: Add Orange Flavor
Stir in the orange zest and orange extract. If you’d like a brighter color, mix in a few drops of orange food coloring. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for 2–3 hours, until firm enough to scoop.

Step 3: Shape the Truffles
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the chilled mixture and roll into balls. If the mixture softens too much, return to the fridge briefly. Place the truffles on a parchment-lined tray.

Step 4: Coat the Truffles
Roll each truffle in powdered sugar until fully coated. For a thicker layer, let the first coating set and roll again.

Step 5: Chill and Enjoy
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes so the coating firms up.
