Instructions
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
Using a food processor, pulse the 36 vanilla sandwich cookies until they make fine crumbs. Add cream cheese and lemon extract and pulse until completely combined, and the mixture forms a paste.
Using a cookie scoop or melon baller scoop out and roll mixture into 1-inch balls. You should have approximately 36 balls. Place the prepared balls in the refrigerator to chill. About 30 minutes.
Place your white chocolate into a double boiler once the water in the lower saucepan starts simmering. Stir the chocolate until it is totally melted, Add coconut oil and lemon zest and gently stir to incorporate fully. Remove from the heat.
With a fork, dip the cookie balls into white chocolate, let drip then return to the baking sheet. Sprinkle your desired topping on each ball immediately after placing the ball back on the cookie sheet.
Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes or until ready to serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
