Oh, my dear friends! If you’re in the mood to impress your loved ones without spending an entire day in the kitchen, then let me introduce you to my absolute favorite sweet treat: 3 Ingredient White Chocolate Raspberry Truffles! Honestly, these little beauties are a showstopper. They’re creamy, tangy, and oh-so-decadent without all the fuss. The combination of sweet white chocolate and tart raspberry is like a hug in dessert form!
I first stumbled upon this recipe at a small gathering where someone brought these truffles as a surprise treat. I must’ve eaten half the batch—okay, maybe more! From that moment on, I had to have the recipe. It quickly became a go-to for birthdays, holidays, or when I’m just feeling a bit fancy! Serve them at your next gathering, and I promise they’ll disappear faster than you can snap a selfie!
What’s in 3 Ingredient White Chocolate Raspberry Truffles?
White Chocolate: The star of the show! I prefer using a high-quality white chocolate bar and chopping it myself. It melts beautifully and gives a rich, creamy texture. Look for brands like Ghirardelli or Guittard for that extra creamy goodness.
Fresh Raspberries: These vibrant little gems lend their sweet-tart flavor to our truffles. When you puree them, they create a luscious mix that pairs wonderfully with the white chocolate. Just make sure they’re ripe and delish!
Raspberry Powder: This magical ingredient not only brings an intense raspberry flavor but also serves as the perfect coating for the truffles. You can find raspberry powder in health food stores or online, but if you can’t get your hands on it, you can always pulse some freeze-dried raspberries into a fine powder for this purpose.
Is 3 Ingredient White Chocolate Raspberry Truffles Good for You?
Now, let’s be real; truffles are a treat and should be enjoyed as such! However, there are a few benefits hidden in these bites.
Raspberries: Packed with antioxidants, these fruits can help fight inflammation and support heart health. Plus, they have fiber, which is always a good thing!
White Chocolate: Okay, while it doesn’t have as many health benefits as dark chocolate, it’s still a source of calcium and can be a more delightful sweet treat if you’re craving something rich!
Just be mindful of portion sizes—these truffles are very rich and indulgent, so savor each bite.
Ingredients List
– 8 ounces white chocolate, chopped

How to Make 3 Ingredient White Chocolate Raspberry Truffles?
1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chopped white chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and fully melted. You don’t want to scorch it, so take it slow!
2. Once melted, add the pureed raspberries to the bowl with the white chocolate. Stir until fully combined and smooth—seriously, this smells divine!
3. Refrigerate the mixture for about 30-60 minutes, or until it’s firm enough to handle. A little waiting never hurt anyone, right?
4. Once the mixture is firm, scoop out small amounts using a melon baller or spoon and roll them into bite-sized balls with your hands. Get those little palms working!
5. Roll each truffle in raspberry powder until fully coated. Don’t skimp on it; it’s where the flavor really shines!
6. Place the finished truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for another 15-30 minutes to firm up again.
