Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 8 oz cream cheese frosting
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
  • 8 oz chocolate coating (dark or white)

Instructions

  1. Grate fresh carrots and combine them in a mixing bowl with granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour.
  2. Stir in the cream cheese frosting until well combined. Mix in chopped walnuts or pecans for extra texture if desired.
  3. Roll the mixture into bite-sized balls (about golf ball size) using clean hands or a cookie scoop.
  4. Chill the rolled truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet for one hour to firm up.
  5. Melt the chocolate coating in a microwave-safe bowl or over low heat. Dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate until fully coated, letting excess drip off before returning to the tray.
  6. Refrigerate again for about one hour until the chocolate hardens before serving.
