Step-by-Step Instructions
- Wash and hull fresh strawberries, chop or mash them, or blend into a puree for a smoother texture. Aim for about 1 cup.
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Gently fold in prepared strawberries into the cheesecake filling evenly using a spatula.
- Cover and refrigerate cheesecake filling for at least 1 hour to firm it up.
- Use a small cookie scoop to portion the mixture into smooth balls, about 1 inch in diameter. If too soft, chill again.
- Melt white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring frequently until smooth.
- Dip each truffle into melted white chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with freeze-dried strawberries if desired.
- Let the truffles set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or refrigerate for 15 minutes until firm.
