💭 Tips

Here are a few tips that you can use to ensure that these recipes turn out perfectly for you when you make them.

  • Make sure that your cream cheese is completely at room temperature so that it mixes evenly into your truffle mixture.
  • If you are worried about the raw flour you can microwave the cake mix on a plate for 1-2 minutes or bake it in the oven spread out on a baking sheet at 350 degrees for 5 minutes.
  • We used a cookie scoop to get even-sized truffles, you can use a regular tablespoon or even an ice cream if you have one.
