Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Sugar Cookie Truffles
  1. Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment or wax paper.
  2. Process the sugar cookies in a food processor until they form fine crumbs, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  3. In a large bowl, combine cookie crumbs with softened cream cheese and mix until cohesive, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Scoop 1 tablespoon portions of the filling and roll into smooth balls, placing them on the baking sheet.
  5. Chill the truffles in the freezer for 15-20 minutes until firm.
  6. Melt the melting wafers in a microwave-safe bowl, heating at 50% power until smooth.
  7. Dip each chilled truffle into the melted coating, allowing excess to drip off before placing them back on the sheet.
  8. Return coated truffles to the refrigerator for about 5-10 minutes to set.
  9. Optionally, drizzle remaining melted coating over the truffles for decoration.
