Instructions

Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the melted white chocolate, vanilla extract, powdered sugar, and salt. Mix until fully combined and creamy.
Chill the mixture: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 1 hour or until the mixture is firm enough to handle.
Shape the truffles: Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, scoop out portions of the mixture and roll into 1-inch balls. Place the truffles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Freeze: Freeze the truffles for 20-30 minutes to make them easier to dip.
Melt the coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the blue candy melts (or white chocolate with blue food coloring) in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Add coconut oil if using for a thinner consistency.
Dip the truffles: Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled truffle into the melted coating, letting the excess drip off. Place them back on the parchment-lined sheet.
Decorate: While the coating is still wet, sprinkle with silver or white decorations for a frosty, festive look.
Set: Let the truffles set at room temperature or refrigerate until firm.
Serve and enjoy: Arrange on a festive platter or package in gift boxes for holiday treats.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a dash of almond or peppermint extract to the filling.
You can use gel food coloring for a more vibrant blue if using white chocolate.
Store truffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
