Ingredients

Scale

1 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon orange zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup orange juice
1 cup crushed graham crackers
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup orange-flavored candy coating or white chocolate

In a small saucepan, heat heavy cream and white chocolate chips over medium heat, stirring until smooth (3-5 minutes). Remove from heat and mix in orange zest, vanilla extract, and orange juice. Let cool for 15-20 minutes.
Refrigerate the ganache covered for 1-2 hours until firm.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll chilled ganache into 1-inch balls and place on the sheet.

Melt candy coating in a microwave-safe bowl in intervals until smooth. Dip each truffle in the coating, allowing excess to drip off before placing back on the baking sheet.
