No-Bake Snowman Truffles are adorable, festive treats combining creamy and sweet flavors without the need for baking. Perfect for holiday gatherings or cozy self-indulgence, these quick and easy-to-make snowman-shaped truffles delight with their charming presentation and customizable decorations.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • Cream Cheese (8 oz, softened)
  • Powdered Sugar (1 cup)
  • Chocolate Chips (1 cup, semi-sweet or white)
  • Vanilla Extract (1 tsp)

Decorations

  • Mini Chocolate Chips or Edible Markers (for eyes and buttons)
  • Orange Candy or Sprinkles (for carrot nose)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Truffle Mixture: In a mixing bowl, blend softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla extract and mix until fully combined, creating the delicious base for your snowman truffles.
  2. Shape the Snowmen: Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, form the mixture into small balls—two per snowman, one slightly larger than the other for the body and head. Place them on a parchment-lined tray and chill for 15-20 minutes until firm.
  3. Melt the Chocolate: Gently melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 20-second intervals while stirring between sessions until smooth and glossy. Let the chocolate cool slightly but keep it fluid for dipping.
  4. Coat the Snowmen: Dip each ball into the melted chocolate to coat completely, then carefully stack two balls together (head on body) using a toothpick or a dab of extra chocolate to secure.
  5. Decorate Your Snowmen: Use mini chocolate chips or edible markers to create eyes and buttons. Add an orange candy piece or sprinkle for the carrot nose. Let the chocolate set completely by refrigerating the truffles again for at least 30 minutes.

Notes

  • Chill the truffle mixture well before dipping to make coating easier and neater.
  • Use room temperature cream cheese for smooth mixing without lumps.
  • Work quickly with melted chocolate since it hardens fast; keep it warm if needed by placing the bowl over warm water.
  • Try different edible decorating tools like gel pens or colored cocoa butter for unique features.
  • Use toothpicks or melted chocolate to secure the head firmly before the coating sets.
