Ingredients

Scale

1 heaping cup fresh strawberries (about 150 g, hulled and chopped) or frozen, thawed and drained
8 oz (225 g) full-fat cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup (60 g) powdered sugar
1/2 cup (85 g) white chocolate chips, melted and slightly cooled
1 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups (260 g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
2 tbsp (28 g) coconut oil (optional, or substitute neutral oil or omit)
Freeze-dried strawberries, crushed (optional, for garnish)
2 tbsp melted white chocolate (optional, for drizzle)
Sprinkles or chopped nuts (optional, for garnish)
2 tbsp almond flour (optional, for firmer filling if needed)

Instructions

In a food processor or blender, blend strawberries until mostly smooth (20-30 seconds).
Add cream cheese, powdered sugar, melted white chocolate chips, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until completely smooth and creamy (about 1 minute). If mixture is too runny, add almond flour or extra white chocolate to thicken.
Transfer mixture to a bowl and freeze for 30-40 minutes, until firm enough to scoop.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop chilled filling into 18-20 mounds (about 1 tablespoon each), roll into balls, and place on the sheet.
Freeze truffle centers until solid, about 1 hour.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in 20-second bursts, stirring until smooth. Let cool 2-3 minutes.
Working with a few truffle centers at a time, dip each in melted chocolate using a fork, let excess drip off, and return to the parchment-lined sheet.
While chocolate is wet, garnish with freeze-dried strawberries, white chocolate drizzle, or sprinkles if desired.
Freeze truffles at least 15 minutes, until chocolate is set. Store in a freezer-safe container with parchment between layers.

Notes

For best results, use ripe, in-season strawberries. If the filling is too soft, add almond flour or extra melted white chocolate. Work in small batches when dipping to keep centers firm. These truffles are naturally gluten-free and can be made dairy-free/vegan with substitutions. Store in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
