Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 8 oz softened cream cheese
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Coating and Decorations

  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • Mini chocolate chips or raisins (for eyes and buttons)
  • Orange candy or mini M&M’s (for carrot noses)
  • Sprinkles or edible glitter (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Truffle Base: Combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Stir everything together until smooth and creamy, creating the perfect base mixture that will hold its shape.
  2. Shape the Snowmen: Using your hands or a small scoop, form small balls for the snowman’s body and a slightly smaller ball for the head. Stack the two carefully, pressing slightly to secure them. Place on a parchment-lined tray to chill for about 15 minutes so they firm up.
  3. Melt the White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, gently melt the white chocolate chips in short bursts, stirring between each to avoid burning. Aim for a smooth, fluid consistency that’s easy to dip the truffles into.
  4. Dip and Decorate: Carefully dip each snowman into the melted white chocolate coating. Let the excess drip off, then place them back on the parchment paper. While the coating is still warm, add mini chocolate chips or raisins for eyes and buttons, and use orange candies for the nose.
  5. Chill Until Set: Refrigerate the finished No-Bake Snowman Truffles for at least 30 minutes or until the chocolate coating is firm and ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • Ensure cream cheese is softened for easier mixing and smoother texture.
  • Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and simplify cleanup.
  • Chill truffles between steps to help them hold their shape and dip more easily.
  • Work quickly with melted chocolate as it hardens fast.
  • Store refrigerated to maintain freshness and prevent melting.
