Truffle…Cookie…Chocolate…Pink…Lemonade…Yum!! We wanted to make truffles for my daughter’s wedding but knew that an outdoor wedding in August meant hot weather. I came across this recipe from Pillsbury for their Pink Lemonade Cookie Truffle. I could not find their Pink Lemonade Cookie Mix so I made a few adjustments. Of course, after I had them made I found the cookie mix.
I bought regular sugar cookie mix from Betty Crocker and then added Duncan Hines Frosting Creations Pink Lemonade Flavor mix. This made the Pink Lemonade Cookie mix I was not able to find until later!!
I did add a little pink coloring to my cookie filling as I was mixing in the cream cheese and frosting. I wanted the pink to pop!!
One of my favorite parts of the truffle is the edible silver hearts sprinkled on the top. Awe so adorable!!
Pillsbury's Pink Lemonade COOKIE Truffles
A sweet truffle different from the rest. This treat is a winner that is filled with a cookie center and dipped in white chocolate coating. Add a little pink food coloring to deepen the pink when mixing in the frosting if desired.
