These Plum cheesecake truffles are amazing!! The kind of dessert for Christmas that I could keep going back for that’s not sickly sweet but has enough flavour to make your taste buds happy! These are the cheats version of making and setting a cheesecake, so easy and so quick to make!
I personally love the layers of flavour beginning with the gingery cream centre, the tart but sweet plum then the hint of creamy sweet white chocolate! Make these to serve for Christmas dessert, take to a Christmas party or give as a edible gift!
PLUM CHEESECAKE TRUFFLES
These plum cheesecake truffles have the yummiest creamy ginger based filling then contrasting rich tart plum coating topped off with a hint of sweet white chocolate. These truffles would make the best edible gift and Christmas dessert. These delicious truffles are best stored in the fridge. I highly recommend doubling the recipe!
