Delightful Strawberry Shortcake Truffles
Ingredients:
1 box vanilla cake mix (plus ingredients needed to prepare the cake)
1/2 cup strawberry preserves
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
12 oz white chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed
Directions:
Prepare the vanilla cake mix according to the package instructions. Once baked, allow the cake to cool completely.
In a large bowl, crumble the cooled cake into fine crumbs.
Add the strawberry preserves and cream cheese to the cake crumbs. Mix until well combined and a dough forms.
Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth.
Dip each truffle into the melted white chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off. Place the truffles back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Immediately sprinkle the crushed freeze-dried strawberries on top of each truffle before the chocolate sets.
Refrigerate the truffles for another 30 minutes or until the chocolate is firm.
