No bake desserts are a must during the holidays. These cheesecake truffles will be a huge hit when serving them to your family and guests.
8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/4 c. butter, softened
1 t. vanilla
3/4 c. powdered sugar
1 oz. semi-sweet chocolate
1 graham cracker, finely crushed
Beat cream cheese, butter and vanilla in a medium bowl with a mixer until blended.
GRADUALLY add powdered sugar, mixing well after each addition. Freeze 1 hour or until cream cheese mixture is firm enough to handle.
Shape cream cheese mixture into 40 balls, using about 1 rounded t. cream cheese mixture per ball. Place in single layer in shallow pan; refrigerate 15 minutes or until firm. **
Melt chocolate as directed on package.
Dip the bottom halves of all cheese balls, 1 at a time, in graham crumbs; place, crumb sides down, on a waxed paper-covered plate.
Drizzle with the melted chocolate; refrigerate 15 minutes or until firm.
Makes 40 balls.
** If they don't form into balls properly after following the steps carefully, add a little extra dash of powdered sugar, or allow them a little extra time to freeze.
OR
If desired, instead of rolling into balls, use a small cookie scoop, drop the scoop into the graham cracker, place on a pan and drizzle with chocolate.
