How to Make White Chocolate And Hazelnut Ball

In a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces of softened Philadelphia Cream Cheese, 6 ounces of melted white chocolate, and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is firm enough to handle.
Once firm, roll the mixture into two equal-sized balls.
Finely chop 1/2 cup of hazelnuts. Roll each ball in the chopped hazelnuts, ensuring they are fully coated.
Place the hazelnut-coated balls on individual serving plates. Chill for another 30 minutes to allow the coating to set.
Serve chilled with ginger biscuits and chocolate chip bread for a delightful contrast of textures and flavors.
