RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

» How to Make Gingerbread Truffles //

1. Use a grinder or food processor to process your cookies until they become very fine crumbs. Alternatively, put cookies in a resealable plastic bag and smash with a rolling pin until they are crumbs.
2. Add in butter and vanilla sugar and process again until well-blended.
3. The dough should be moist enough to hold together when you press it into a ball.
4. Transfer mixture into a plate.
5. Then roll cookie mixture into 1 inch balls using a cookie scoop, melon baller or hands.
6. It makes about 14 1-­inch balls. I used my hands for shaping them into balls to make them completely round. Place onto a plate wax paper lined plate and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
7. Melt chocolate in a microwave on for 2-3 minutes stirring after each minute until smooth. Alternatively, melt white chocolate slowly in a double boiler.
8. Dip lower half of each truffle into chocolate mixture; allow excess to drip back into the bowl. You can also coat them in chocolate fully.
9. Place the coated truffles onto a plate or a cookie sheet.
10. Immediately top with sprinkles. Repeat with remaining cookie balls.
11. Allow truffles to rest refrigerate for 15 minutes, or until the chocolate has set. Enjoy.

RECIPE NOTES
