Preparation

Step 1

Pulse cookies in a food processor until crumbled or put in a plastic bag and hammer until crumbled completely. Add cream cheese and strawberry syrup and blend until smooth. Place mixture in freezer for about 2 hours or until firm.

Using hands, roll into balls, approximately 1-inch in diameter each. Refrigerate for approximately 30 minutes or until firm.

Melt white chocolate according to package instructions or use a double broiler. Using a fork, dip each ball in white chocolate, spooning over the top to completely coat. Place on wax paper to allow chocolate to harden. Add 2 drops of red food coloring to remaining white chocolate and combine. (Or you can use the Wilson candy melts).

Using a fork or icing bag, drizzle pink chocolate over truffles. Enjoy.
