- 4 Tbsp lime zest
- 2 ¼ cup white chocolate chips

Coating
- 2 cup graham crackers, crushed
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, sweetened condensed milk, lime zest, softened butter, tequila, and white chocolate chips thoroughly to form the truffle base.
- First Microwave Heating: Place the bowl in the microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds to gently melt the mixture, then whisk thoroughly to blend all ingredients.
- Second Microwave Heating: Return the bowl to the microwave for another 1 minute, then whisk again until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
- Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl tightly with cling wrap and refrigerate until the mixture firms up, making it easier to shape.
- Shape the Truffles: Using a tablespoon, scoop portions of the firmed mixture and roll each portion into a smooth ball.
- Coat with Graham Crackers: Roll each truffle ball in the crushed graham crackers to evenly coat them, adding a crunchy texture.
- Repeat: Continue scooping, rolling, and coating until all the truffle mixture has been formed into balls.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Margarita Truffles chilled for a refreshing and indulgent treat.

- Use a fine grate for the lime zest to maximize flavor without bitterness.
- Ensure the butter is softened to blend smoothly with the other ingredients.
- You can substitute white chocolate chips with chopped white chocolate for a richer texture.
- Keep the truffles refrigerated until serving to maintain firmness.
- For an extra festive touch, consider sprinkling additional lime zest or coarse sugar on top before serving.
