Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together ½ cup of heavy whipping cream, 1 can of sweetened condensed milk, and ¼ cup of fresh lime juice until smooth. This creamy base is crucial for the texture.
- Melt 2 cups of white chocolate chips using a double boiler or microwave. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring until fully melted, around 2 minutes total.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of softened unsalted butter into the melted chocolate until well incorporated. Fold in the lime zest from 2 key limes.
- Gradually pour the creamy base into the melted chocolate, gently stirring until thoroughly combined. Take about 2-3 minutes of careful folding to maintain lightness.
- Fold in 1 cup of crushed graham crackers, distributing evenly into the mixture, taking about 1-2 minutes.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until firm enough to handle.
- Once firm, scoop or shape the mixture into bite-sized balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, which should take about 10-15 minutes.
- Roll the truffles in any remaining crushed graham crackers or coconut if desired, and chill for an additional 30 minutes before serving.

Notes
Use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor and texture. Chill long enough to ensure the mixture is firm yet easy to roll. Store truffles in an airtight container.
