– 2 cups crushed graham crackers
– 1 cup powdered sugar
– ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1 cup cream cheese, softened
– 1 tablespoon orange zest
– 2 tablespoons orange juice (freshly squeezed)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips
– 2 tablespoons coconut oil (for melting chocolate)

Making No Bake Orange Creamsicle Truffles is simple; just follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare the Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine crushed graham crackers and powdered sugar. Stir to mix evenly.
2. Add Creamy Ingredients: Add the softened butter, cream cheese, orange zest, orange juice, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
3. Chill Mixture: Place the mixture in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes to firm up slightly, making it easier to roll into balls.
4. Form the Truffles: Once the mixture has chilled, use a small cookie scoop or your hands to form small balls (about 1 inch in diameter).
5. Melt White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips and coconut oil. Melt in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between until smooth and fully melted.
6. Coat the Truffles: Dip each truffle in the melted white chocolate, using a fork to remove and allow excess chocolate to drip off.
7. Decorate: Place the coated truffles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. If desired, sprinkle with extra orange zest or decorations before the chocolate sets.
8. Chill Again: Place the baking sheet back in the refrigerator and let the truffles chill for another 30 minutes or until the chocolate is firm.
9. Serve: Enjoy your No Bake Orange Creamsicle Truffles, or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you’re ready to share.
These steps ensure you’ll create delightful truffles that capture the essence of an orange creamsicle in every bite!
