Let's cook.

01

Make and Chill Mixture

Start by beating the cream cheese until it’s nice and smooth. Slowly add the powdered sugar, mixing as you go, until everything is well combined. Then stir in the melted chocolate and a splash of vanilla extract. Pop the mixture into the fridge and let it chill for about an hour so it firms up. Once it’s ready, scoop out small spoonfuls and roll them into bite-sized balls. You can coat them in cocoa powder, shredded coconut, or chopped almonds—whatever you like best. Keep the truffles stored in the fridge until you’re ready to enjoy them.
