Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 228 grams Cream cheese
- 60 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 120 grams Almonds, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Honey
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and powdered sugar. Use a hand mixer or a spatula to beat the mixture until it is smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract and honey to the bowl, mixing until fully incorporated.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to make it easier to handle.
While the mixture is chilling, finely chop the almonds and spread them out on a flat plate.
Once the cream cheese mixture is firm, scoop out tablespoon-sized portions and roll them into smooth balls using your hands.
Roll each ball in the chopped almonds, gently pressing the nuts into the cream cheese mixture to ensure they stick.
Arrange the almond cream cheese balls on a serving platter or in an airtight container.
Chill the balls in the refrigerator for an additional 10 minutes before serving to allow them to set.
