These Sugar Cookie Truffles are easy to make, delicious, and fun to decorate for any holiday or a fun gender reveal party!
It’s the season for sugar cookies! What’s better than sugar cookies? Sugar cookies coated with chocolate and sprinkles to make truffles. These truffles are so fun and easy to make. The best part, you can use festive sprinkles to make these be dressed up for any holiday or occasion.
I happened to dress mine up for a GENDER REVEAL!
If you’ve been following along, you know that we are currently expecting baby #4. We have 3 beautiful girls already. And seeing as how we are not the type of people to wait until we have the baby, we found out at our last doctor’s appointment what we are having.
So are you ready?!?! Drum roll please!
It’s a boy!!!!
I’m slightly in shock, possibly a little scared. After spending all these years taking care of little girls I kind of feel like I have it down. What am I supposed to with a little boy? Not to mention my hubs already told me I can’t be putting him into the cute little pink swing we have stored in the closet.
How fun are these sugar cookie truffles though?! All it takes is some sugar cookie dough and a little food coloring. You could easily substitute pink for the blue food coloring.
Or! You could use these for a Frozen themed party! How fun would that be? Let it goooooo. Sorry..couldn’t resist.
I hope you enjoyed the recipe and will follow along on my cooking adventures:

These Sugar Cookie Truffles are easy to make, delicious, and so fun to decorate for any holiday or a fun gender reveal party!
- Prep Time: 10 minutes
- Cook Time: 18 minutes
- Total Time: 28 minutes
- Yield: 16-18
Ingredients
- Sugar Cookie Dough of choice (I used a Betty Crocker Mix) + required ingredients
- Food coloring of choice (I used Wilton Royal Blue)
- 4 ounces of cream cheese softened
- 1 12 ounce bag of white chocolate chips
- sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the sugar cookies according to directions. Add in the food coloring and thoroughly mix in, so the color is evenly distributed.
- Bake the sugar cookies according to directions. Allow to cool.
- Once sugar cookies are cooled, crumble up into mixing bowl, add in the softened cream cheese. Mix over low speed until fully combined, will be slightly sticky.
- Roll the mixture into balls, 1 inch in diameter. Place onto a cookie sheet covered in wax paper.
- Place the sugar cookie balls into the freezer for about 10-15 minutes, this will help them set and hold shape.
- Melt the white chocolate in the microwave using 50% power and 20 second increments, stirring between each time until fully melted.
- Once chocolate is melted coat the sugar cookie balls with the melted chocolate using a spoon, or dunk into the chocolate with a fork, tap off excess chocolate, and place back onto the wax paper, add sprinkles while chocolate is still melted.
- Store in refrigerator until ready to eat. Enjoy!

Congratulations!!! Little boys are so fun! I have a girl, then a boy, and I’m currently expecting another girl. Don’t know what I’d do without my boy!
Serene says
Thanks so much Kristine! Congratulations on the little girl 🙂

Serene says
Thank you so much Stephanie!
Mary Frances says
Oh Serene, that’s wonderful! Congratulations! I guess this just means you’ll need another little guy to ensure he doesn’t end up wearing boas and singing Let It Go 😉 You’re going to do great even if it means a pink swing 🙂 Again, congratulations! This is so exciting! And these are seriously perfect for a Frozen themed party. Love them!
Serene says
Thanks so much Mary Frances! You are so funny! 🙂 And you sound my husband he’s already talking about how he’s going to need another little boy to play with. And one of my daughters has this Stitch doll that she dresses in Build-A-Bear outfits, and the hubs has already told her that Stitch is no longer allowed to wear girly clothes once the baby shows up.
Heather W says
Super cute gender reveal idea! Congrats on your boy! We are expecting baby #4 also (end of April) and its a girl so we will have 1 boy (10)and 3 girls(7,2) too. The girls are more scary to me than the boy though! Lol Boys are much different but (usually) easier. It’s a fun, crazy life but wouldn’t trade it for anything. Congrats again!
Serene says
Thank you so much Heather! So nice to meet you 🙂 Congrats on your little one coming in April too! Sounds like your kids are about the same age as ours. Thanks so much for helping to ease my mind about the little boy coming. And I definitely agree, it is a fun, crazy life! I’m so happy to have you here, thanks for stopping by.
Danae @ Recipe Runner says
Congrats Serene!! What a fun way to reveal the baby’s gender! Can I pretend I’m pregnant and eat all of those truffles?! 😉
Serene says
Thanks so much Danae! And absolutely you can pretend and have as many truffles as you want!

Jenny says
So excited for you! You can totally tell you’re a mom of girls with your “Let it go” solo. Love it! You’ll be an amazing mama of an adorable little boy. I bet you could re-purpose that pink chair into blue. 😉
Serene says
Thanks so much Jenny. And oh my goodness, my girls still sing that song as loud as they can quite often. I don’t think I will ever escape it! And I’m sure you’re right about the swing 🙂 we’ll figure something out!
Kayley @ The Kitchen McCabe says
I didn’t know you were expecting, Serene! How awesome! We are twinners. I am also on #4 and it’s a boy too 🙂 Your little boy will be so lucky to have all those sisters!
Serene says
Thanks so much Kayley! Yay for boys and Yay for baby #4! I think you’re only a few weeks ahead of me too, I just hit 21 weeks. Although in your IG pictures you look way cuter than me when pregnant 🙂
Sonali- The Foodie Physician says
Congratulations!! Such an adorable way to do the reveal! These really are some of the cutest, most festive truffles I’ve ever seen 🙂
Serene says
Thanks so much Sonali!
Ashlyn @ Belle of the Kitchen says
Serene!!! This is such a fun way to do a gender reveal and CONGRATULATIONS! I know you must be so excited to be having a boy! You’ll love being a boy mama, there is just nothing like it. 🙂
Charlie says
Do you think it would work to mix in pink/blue sprinkles rather than using food dye? Congratulations on the boy! We get to find out the gender next week and I’m brainstorming reveal ideas – I love this!
Serene says
Hi Charlie! You can definitely do this with the larger Jimmie style of sprinkles. Congrats on your little one on the way!
