    Gingerbread truffles, they are easier than making gingerbread cookies.  Yup, really.  These little no bake bites of happiness will leave you in a much better mood than the gingerbread man who got caught and devoured. 

    Love gingerbread? Me too. Check out my viral gingerbread latte pour overs, gingerbread caramel marshmallows, or sticky gingerbread cake caramels.

    Ingredients for gingerbread truffles

    • white chocolate
      • Do not use white chocolate chips. Used the baking bars you find in the baking aisle, or white chocolate candy bars from the candy aisle.
    • Cookie butter
      • Biscoff, Trader Joes, another store brand... any will work! Just make sure it's creamy.
    • gingerbread spice blend
      • This one is my favorite from Amazon so I don't have to blend it myself.
    • cinnamon
    • ginger

    Instructions for gingerbread truffles

    The bulk of the recipe is: combine, refrigerate, scoop, dip.  If you don't want to dip the truffles into white chocolate, you can roll them into crushed gingerbread cookies.  After you scoop, you might need to place the truffle centers back into the refrigerator before dipping if they are too soft to hold their shape when dipped.
