Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup fresh raspberries, mashed
- 1 cup white chocolate chips or melting wafers
Sweet and Flavor Enhancers:
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Coating and Garnish Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or shortening (optional, for smoother melting)
- Freeze-dried raspberry powder or crushed freeze-dried raspberries
- White chocolate drizzle (optional)
Instructions
- Craft a luxurious base by whisking cream cheese until velvety smooth, incorporating powdered sugar and vanilla extract to create a rich, creamy foundation. Delicately integrate crushed raspberries, ensuring an even, vibrant distribution throughout the mixture.
- Allow the blended mixture to rest and solidify in the refrigerator, enabling the flavors to meld and the texture to become more manageable for shaping.
- Utilizing a precise scoop, form uniform spherical treats, carefully rolling each portion between palms to achieve a perfect, smooth rounded shape. Arrange the delicate orbs on a chilled parchment-lined tray.
- Transfer the nascent confections to the freezer, allowing them to firm completely and develop structural integrity for the upcoming chocolate enrobing process.

- Methodically submerge each frozen sphere into the molten white chocolate, ensuring comprehensive coverage. Gracefully remove excess coating by delicately tapping and rotating.

- Return the adorned delicacies to the refrigerator, allowing the coating to crystallize and develop a pristine, elegant finish. Serve thoroughly chilled to preserve the optimal sensory experience.
Notes
- Mash raspberries thoroughly to prevent large chunks that might disrupt the smooth texture of the cheesecake balls.
- Keep cheesecake mixture and balls consistently cold to maintain shape and prevent crumbling during coating process.
- Use a deep bowl for white chocolate dipping to ensure complete and even coverage without creating messy edges.
