Ingredients

Scale

Base

11 ounces vanilla wafers
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 mashed ripe bananas

Topping & Coating

8 ounces white chocolate
20 banana chips

Instructions

Prepare the Crumbs: Place vanilla wafers in a food processor and pulse until they turn into fine crumbs.
Mix Ingredients: Add the softened cream cheese and mashed ripe bananas to the processor with the wafer crumbs.
Form Batter: Pulse the mixture until a stiff, cohesive batter forms, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.
Shape Truffles: Scoop out the batter into small balls approximately 1.5 inches in diameter.
Freeze Balls: Place the formed balls in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up.
Melt Chocolate: While the balls freeze, melt white chocolate in a double boiler over the stovetop, stirring frequently until smooth.
Dip Truffles: Once frozen, dip each ball into the melted white chocolate coating completely, and place them on parchment paper.
Add Topping: Immediately place a banana chip on top of each coated truffle before the chocolate sets.
Set Chocolate: Return the dipped truffles to the refrigerator until the chocolate is fully set and firm.
Serve: Serve the chilled banana pudding truffles as a delicious, bite-sized dessert.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is softened to blend smoothly for even texture.
Freeze time can be extended up to 30 minutes for easier dipping.
Use a double boiler or microwave in short bursts to melt chocolate without burning.
Store truffles refrigerated in an airtight container and consume within 3-4 days for freshness.
For a crunchier texture in the batter, pulse wafers less for coarser crumbs.
