Are these No Bake Gingerbread Balls Dipped in White Chocolate?
When you are making these no bake gingerbread truffles after you form the truffle ball and let it set, you will dip the truffle into melted white chocolate. This forms the outside of the truffle. After you have dipped the no bake gingerbread truffles, you will add cookie crumbs on the outside of the truffle.
What is the Best Way to Dip Gingerbread Truffles?
After you have melted the chocolate, you will dip each one into the chocolate. I recommend using a spoon or a form to dip the truffles into the chocolate. Either one will work, it is a matter of preference. You will want to dip the truffles one at a time in order to get the best results.
Can You Freeze These Easy Gingerbread Truffles?
If you have leftovers the truffles or want to make sure you have gingerbread truffles on hand for whenever you want them you can freeze the truffles. I prefer to freeze the truffles on a plate before I add them to an airtight container or a freezer bag. This keeps the truffles from sticking together. Then you can remove however many you want without having to remove the whole batch.
