KEY LIME TRUFFLES
No chocolate, but packed with the bright lime and graham cracker flavour from the classic treat! A touch of tangy cream cheese adds just the right about of taste and texture. Make a double (or triple!) batch and keep them in the freezer to prolong their life - not that they'll hang around long!

Steps:
- In a bowl, beat together the cream cheese, butter, sugar, lime zest and lime juice until well combined.
- Mix together the flour and graham cracker crumbs and beat into the cheese mixture to form a scoopable "batter-dough".
- Roll small balls of the mixture and refrigerate at least 1 hour to firm up (or freeze at this point).
- Dip in melted chocolate and allow to set. When coated, truffles can be kept at room temperature for 1 week or 3 weeks in the fridge.
