Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1 cup of powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons of fresh orange zest, and 1 tablespoon of fresh orange juice. Beat until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Melt 1 cup of white chocolate chips over low heat in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, stirring frequently until smooth.
  3. Pour the cooled melted white chocolate into the creamy base and mix gently. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and blend until thick and smooth.
  4. Cover and chill the mixture in the refrigerator for about 1-2 hours until firm.
  5. Once chilled, scoop out bite-sized portions and roll into balls. Place on a parchment-lined tray.
  6. Optionally, melt orange candy melts and dip each truffle, allowing excess to drip off, then return to the tray to set for 15-20 minutes.
  7. Decorate with grated orange zest, powdered sugar, or candied orange peel before serving.
