How to Make Gingerbread Truffles

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl or a double boiler, melt 12 ounces of white chocolate chips with 1/4 cup of heavy cream. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  2. Stir in 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
  3. Pour the mixture into a shallow, parchment-lined 8x8 inch baking pan.
  4. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or overnight, until firm but pliable.
  5. Roll the chilled mixture into 1-inch balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill again for at least 30 minutes until firm.
  6. For faster chilling, place the truffles on a baking sheet and freeze for 15-20 minutes.
  7. Gently reroll the chilled truffles into a perfect ball shape.
  8. Melt your choice of candy melts (approximately 8 ounces) according to package directions. Dip each truffle into the melted candy, allowing excess to drip off.
  9. Immediately roll the dipped truffles in your favorite sprinkles.
  10. Let the candy coating set completely before serving. Enjoy!
