Cookies and cream truffles arranged for Christmas gifting

A little box of homemade truffles is a particularly welcome Christmas gift. Beneath their pale white-chocolate coating, these sweets hide a rich center made from crushed chocolate cookies and cream cheese—a pleasing contrast in both color and texture.

Wrapped for Giving

Nestle the set truffles into small paper candy cups and arrange them in a decorative tin or gift box. Because the filling contains cream cheese, keep them refrigerated and let the recipient know to do the same.
