Description

These No Bake Orange Creamsicle Truffles are the perfect bite-sized treat with a bright citrus flavor and creamy texture. They are easy to make and ideal for any occasion!

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup white chocolate melting chips
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • Zest from 1 orange
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon orange extract
  • A few drops orange food coloring
  • 1/2 cup confectioners sugar, divided

Instructions

  1. Prepare the White Chocolate:
    Place the white chocolate melting chips in a medium bowl and set aside.
  2. Infuse the Butter with Orange Zest:
    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter and orange zest. Cook for about 1 minute to infuse the butter with the orange flavor.
  3. Add the Cream:
    Pour in the heavy cream and stir to prevent scalding. Continue stirring for about 2 minutes, allowing the mixture to combine fully.
  4. Melt the White Chocolate:
    Pour the butter mixture through a fine strainer over the white chocolate melting chips. Let the mixture sit for about a minute to melt the chocolate.
  5. Add Extract and Color:
    Add the orange extract and a few drops of orange food coloring to the melted chocolate. Whisk the mixture until the chocolate is mostly melted and smooth.
  6. Chill the Mixture:
    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the mixture in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours until it becomes firm enough to shape.
  7. Shape the Truffles:
    Divide the confectioners sugar between two small bowls. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the truffle mixture and roll them into balls.
  8. Coat the Truffles:
    Roll each truffle in one of the bowls of confectioners sugar, then place them on a cookie sheet. Once all the truffles are rolled, re-roll them in the second bowl of confectioners sugar.
  9. Set the Truffles:
    Place the truffles in the freezer for 20 minutes to set. Once set, transfer them to the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Notes

  • For a fun twist, you can roll the truffles in colored sanding sugar or coconut flakes instead of confectioners sugar for extra texture.
  • These truffles can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for up to a week.
  • If the mixture is too soft to roll, you can add a little more white chocolate to help it firm up.
