Ingredients

1½ cups gingersnap crumbs
6 oz cream cheese softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-2 cups white chocolate or almond bark melted

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Start by blending or processing the ginger cookies and until they are fine crumbs and you have 1-1/2 cups.
Place the cookie crumbs in a mixing bowl with the cream cheese and vanilla extract. Mix together until a dough forms. This process is made much easier if you use a hand mixer!
Roll the dough into 1 tablespoon rounds and place on a parchment lined pan. Chill for one hour.
Melt white chocolate, or white almond bark, according to the package directions.
Working quickly, dip each truffle in chocolate. Place on a parchment lined sheet and allow to set before serving.

Notes

Use a high powered blender or food processor to get fine crumbled cookies. You do not want large pieces.
A cookie scoop will help make sure that your truffles are even in sizes.
To keep the dough from sticking to your hands, wet your hands slightly.
If the chocolate is too thick, add a small spoon full of shortening to the melted chocolate. Stir until dissolved.
