Method
Preparation
- Prepare the velvet strawberry cake and let it cool completely.
- In a mixing bowl, blend the cooled cake with cream cheese and powdered sugar until well combined.
- Fold in the freeze-dried strawberries or reserved cake crumbs.
- Form the mixture into small balls and press a fresh strawberry into the center of each ball.
- Chill the truffles in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
Coating
- Melt the white chocolate chips or melting wafers in a microwave or double boiler.
- Dip each truffle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Allow the excess chocolate to drip off before placing the truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Let the truffles set in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens.
Serving
- Serve chilled on a small plate or tray.
- They work well with coffee or tea, and can be arranged on a tiered tray for parties.
Notes
Keep the truffles in the fridge in an airtight container for 4–5 days or freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge before serving.
