# Instructions:
01 -
Mix white chocolate and cream, heating in short bursts of 20 seconds until smooth. Blend in blueberry jam, vanilla, and lemon zest if you're using it.
02 -
Pop the mixture in the fridge, cover it up, and let it sit for 1-2 hours. You want it firm enough to scoop easily.
03 -
Scoop out the cold mixture into 1-inch rounds, roll them into balls, and lay them on a sheet with parchment. Freeze for half an hour.
04 -
Melt white chocolate along with the coconut oil in the microwave, heating in 20-second bursts until it's silky smooth.
05 -
Take each truffle and roll it in the melted white chocolate. Shake off the extra coating and place it on parchment paper.
06 -
While the coating's still wet, throw on your favorite sprinkles or toppings. Let them dry or chill them for 10-15 minutes to harden up.
