Homemade Lemon Tuffles

1. Prepare the Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.
2. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until it’s firm enough to handle.
3. Melt the Chocolate: While the mixture is chilling, melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted and smooth.
4. Form the Truffles: Once the lemon mixture is firm, use a small cookie scoop or your hands to form small balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Coat the Truffles: Dip each lemon ball into the melted white chocolate, making sure they are fully coated. Use a fork to lift them out and allow excess chocolate to drip off.
6. Add Toppings: If desired, roll the coated truffles in extra lemon zest or crushed nuts for added flavor and texture.
7. Chill Again: Place the truffles back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for another 30 minutes to set.
8. Serve: Enjoy your homemade lemon truffles chilled! They make a refreshing and tasty treat.
