Schweddy Balls Recipe

Schweddy Balls Recipe

The Schweddy Balls recipe is one of those cheeky dishes that's as fun to say as it is to eat.
In my kitchen, I focus on getting that perfect blend of spices and herbs to make each meatball burst with flavor.
Here's a tip: chill the meat mixture before rolling it into balls to ensure they hold their shape while cooking.

Equipment
  • 1 double boiler
  • 1 fork
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 spoon
  • 1 wax paper-lined baking sheet
  • 1 heatproof bowl
  • 1 pot
Ingredients
  
  • One 8 oz package of cream cheese softened
  • 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup of all-purpose cookies crushed in a food processor
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips optional for drizzling
  • Allergy-friendly alternatives as needed
Instructions
 
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, crushed all-purpose cookies, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract.
    Use your hands or a spoon to mix the ingredients until they are well combined.
  • Scoop the mixture and roll it into bite-sized balls about 1 inch in diameter.
    As you form the balls, place them onto a parchment or wax paper-lined baking sheet or tray.
    Once all the balls have been made, place the tray in the freezer for at least 30 minutes to firm them up.
  • While the balls are chilling, prepare a double boiler by placing a heatproof bowl over a pot of gently simmering water, making sure the bowl does not touch the water.
    Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the bowl and stir occasionally until completely smooth and melted.
    Remove the bite-sized balls from the freezer.
    Dip each ball into the melted semi-sweet chocolate, using a fork or similar utensil to help you coat them evenly.
    Place the coated balls back onto the lined tray.
  • If desired, melt the white chocolate chips in the double boiler and drizzle this over the coated balls for an extra touch.
    Use a fork to create a decorative pattern with the white chocolate.
  • Finally, place the tray of Schweddy Balls back into the freezer for another 30 minutes to set the chocolate.
    Once set, store them in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
    Enjoy your beautiful Schweddy Balls!
