Strawberry Cloud Truffles are sweet little bites that bring together fruity strawberry taste with smooth truffle texture. These no-bake goodies use strawberry cake bits mixed with condensed milk for an easy-to-shape soft middle. A dash of vanilla makes them richer, and you can throw in some almond extract if you want a nutty kick. When coated in powdered sugar, they get this lovely sweet outside that just melts away as you eat them.
INGREDIENTS- Finely crumbled strawberry-flavored cake bits: 1 cup, creating the fruity foundation
- Condensed milk (sweetened): 1/2 cup, to sweeten and hold everything together
- Vanilla extract: 1/2 tsp, to boost overall taste
- Optional almond extract: 1/4 tsp, for a subtle nutty touch
- Powdered sugar: 1 cup, for rolling and finishing the truffles
- Step 2:
- Take about 1 tablespoon of the mix and roll it between your hands until you get a nice round ball.
- Step 1:
- Mix the strawberry cake bits, condensed milk, vanilla, and almond extract (if you're using it) in a bowl. Stir until you get something that feels like soft dough.
- Try coating them in coconut flakes or crushed nuts for different textures.
- Keep your truffles fresh in a sealed container in the fridge for up to a week.
- If your mix sticks to your hands too much, just add more cake bits to make it easier to work with.

FAQsCan I put real strawberries in instead of cake bits?
You need dry stuff to hold these together, so fresh strawberries won't work well. Maybe add a few drops of strawberry flavoring if you want them more strawberry-ish.
What's the best way to keep these?
Put them in a container that seals tight and stick them in the fridge for up to a week. You can let them warm up a bit before eating if you want.
Can I make these if I don't eat animal products?
Sure thing, just grab some coconut condensed milk and vegan cake bits instead.
What about using something else for the coating?
Go for it! Try crushed nuts, cocoa powder, or coconut flakes for something different.
