Ingredients

Scale

1 cup sweetened condensed milk
2 cups powdered sugar
Zest of 2 lemons
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Prepare your workspace by gathering a mixing bowl, spatula, measuring cups, and a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In the mixing bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, powdered sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about one hour until firm.
Once chilled, scoop small portions (about 1 inch in diameter) and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler until smooth.
Dip each truffle into melted chocolate using forks or toothpicks, allowing excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl before placing them back on parchment paper.
Let the truffles set until the chocolate hardens.
