Orange Creamsicle Truffles

Orange Creamsicle Truffles are dreamy, bite-sized treats that taste just like the classic frozen orange-and-vanilla popsicle — but in creamy, candy form. These are perfect for summer parties, holiday platters, or just keeping in the fridge for a sweet citrusy hit.

🔥 Instructions:

1. Melt the Chocolate:

   • In a heatproof bowl, combine white chocolate chips and heavy cream.

   • Roll quickly between your hands, then roll in powdered sugar or coconut.
