Hi Bold Bakers! Baking during the holidays is a tradition that’s not only loved but one that really helps bring the families together. Sometimes, though? You just want to make something quick so you can plop down on the couch with your family and watch some Christmas movies. (What is your family’s favorite holiday movie? Leave me a comment!) Already have an account? My gingerbread truffles are the perfect quick dessert recipe to get you into the holiday spirit. They’re warm, with a little spice, a great way to use up any gingerbread you may have baked, and make for an excellent edible gift if you feel like sharing the wealth. They’re also super easy. You can use storebought or homemade gingerbread, even my Sticky Gingerbread recipe, or even gingersnap cookies. And once you’ve got that, it’s just two more ingredients (three, if you want sprinkles) and only a little time. NO BAKING!

Gemma’s Pro Chef Tips For Making Gingerbread Truffles
You can use either store brought gingerbread, gingersnap cookies, or My Sticky Gingerbread recipe for these truffles. Make these truffles up to 2 days in advance, especially if you are gifting them! Letting them sit improves the flavor. Be careful while melting white chocolate; it burns very easily. Be sure to soften your cream cheese before you make the truffles. Soften it in the microwave for 30 seconds.
How Do I Store Gingerbread Truffles?
Gingerbread truffles will keep for 7 days in the refrigerator.
