Ingredients

Scale

8 oz cream cheese

softened

2 cups powdered sugar

12 oz white chocolate

divided

1 tablespoon orange zest

1 teaspoon orange extract

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 drop orange gel food coloring (optional)

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until well combined.
Stir in the orange zest, orange extract, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
If using, add the orange gel food coloring to achieve your desired shade of orange.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes until firm.
Once chilled, scoop out small portions and roll them into balls.

Dip each truffle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Allow the truffles to set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, consider using fresh orange juice along with the zest.
