Description
Delicious mango coconut truffles coated in white chocolate for a sweet treat!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Ripe Mango (pureed)
- 8 oz Cream Cheese (softened)
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
- 1 cup White Chocolate (for coating)
- 1 cup Desiccated Coconut
Instructions
- Begin by peeling and chopping the ripe mango into small pieces. Place the mango chunks in a blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the mango puree with softened cream cheese. Blend until creamy, then add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing to combine. Stir in lemon juice.
- Roll a small portion of the mango mixture into a ball about 1 inch in diameter and place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate the tray of truffles for at least 30 minutes to firm them up.
- Melt white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 20-30 second intervals until fully melted and smooth.
- Dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off before returning them to parchment paper.
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle desiccated coconut over the truffles, pressing gently to adhere.
- Return the coated truffles to the refrigerator for an additional 15 minutes to let the chocolate set properly.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the mixture.
- Use ripe mango for optimal flavor and sweetness.
