Life^® Cereal Football Truffles are bite-sized treats made from crushed Cinnamon Life^® cereal mixed with cream cheese, dipped in chocolate, and decorated to resemble footballs, perfect for game-day snacking.

Ingredients

6 cups Life Cereal - Cinnamon
8 oz package light cream cheese
3 tbsp milk
2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 cup white chocolate chips
2 tbsp coconut oil, divided

How to make it

1

Using a food processor, pulse the Cinnamon Life^® Cereal until they are a fine crumble.
2

Remove from the food processor and add to a bowl with the cream cheese, mix well using a spoon. Add three tablespoons of milk until it resembles a dough.
3

Use a tablespoon to scoop up the filling then roll into a 1 inch ball. Then, flatten the shape to resemble a football.
4

Place on a baking sheet with wax paper and freeze for at least 20 minutes.
5

Once firm, microwave your milk chocolate chips with 1 tsp of coconut oil, stopping every 30 seconds to stir. Continue this process until the chocolate is melted and smooth, roughly 2 minutes.
6

Dip the truffles into the melted chocolate until well coated, then return to the wax paper lined baking sheet and freeze for another 10 minutes.
7

Meanwhile, microwave the white chocolate with 1/2 tsp of coconut oil using the same process, stopping every 30 seconds to stir until smooth and melted.
8

Fill a piping bag with a fine tip with the white chocolate and pipe the football laces on to the football truffles.

Tips & Tricks

Note: If you do not have a food processor, simply add the cereal to a plastic freezer bag and smash with a rolling pin or a mallet. Keep refrigerated prior to serving.
