How to Make Strawberry Truffles
- In a mixing bowl, beat together 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger until completely smooth and creamy.
- Add 6 ounces of finely chopped white chocolate to the cream cheese mixture and mix until well combined.
- Cover the bowl and chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until firm enough to handle easily. (If it's too soft, proceed to step 4)
- If the mixture is still too soft to handle after 1 hour, place it in the freezer for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until it reaches a pliable consistency.
- Gently scoop out the center of each strawberry, halfway down, using a small melon baller or a teaspoon. (Approximately 12 large strawberries)
- Pat the strawberries dry, both inside and out, using paper towels.
- Place a small pinch of crystallized ginger into the hollow center of each strawberry.
- Shape a portion of the cream cheese mixture around each prepared strawberry, completely covering the fruit.
- Coat one end of each truffle generously in sweetened shredded coconut and the other end in finely chopped pistachios.
- Place the finished truffles in candy cups or small paper liners.
- Chill the truffles in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the coatings to set.
- Enjoy your delicious homemade strawberry truffles!
