Cream Cheese Balls with Raspberry Sauce

Ingredients :

For the Raspberry Sauce:

• 2 cups fresh raspberries
• ½ cup sugar
• 6 tablespoons water
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch

For the Cream Cheese Filling:

• 200-300g cream cheese, at room temperature
• ½ cup sugar
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• No-bake cookie dough
• Decorations of your choice

Instructions :

1. Combine raspberries and sugar in a small saucepan. In a separate bowl, whisk together water and cornstarch. Add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan. Cook over low heat for 5-7 minutes or until the sauce thickens. Let cool.
2. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy (about 2-3 minutes). Beat in the sugar, egg yolk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract for an additional 2 minutes.
3. Using a medium cookie scoop, portion out the no-bake cookie dough and flatten slightly in your hand. Place a dollop of cream cheese filling on the cookie dough, followed by a spoonful of raspberry sauce. Seal the dough to form a smooth ball.
4. Refrigerate the balls until ready to serve. Decorate with coconut flakes, chocolate sprinkles, or other toppings of your choice.

Enjoy!
