Delicious Birthday Cake Truffles Recipe

Birthday cake truffles – the perfect bite-sized indulgence that captures the essence of a celebratory cake in a convenient, irresistible form. Whether you’re a seasoned baker or a kitchen novice, the allure of these delectable treats is undeniable.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups crumbled birthday cake
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 6 ounces white chocolate, melted
  • Sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine the crumbled cake, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Mix until well combined.
  2. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls.
  3. Dip each truffle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated.
  4. Place the truffles on parchment paper and sprinkle with sprinkles (optional).
  5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.

Notes

Even experienced bakers encounter occasional hiccups. Here’s how to address common challenges:

 

  • Truffles are too dry: Add a tablespoon or two of milk or cream to the cake mixture.
  • Truffles are too sticky: Add more powdered sugar to the mixture.
  • Chocolate coating is too thick: Dip the truffles quickly and use a less viscous chocolate.
  • Chocolate coating is cracking: The chocolate may be too cold. Let it warm slightly before dipping.
