  2. Gradually fold in white chocolate chips and graham cracker crumbs until fully incorporated, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. If desired, add food coloring to the mixture and mix until the color is uniform.
  4. Spread the mixture on a buttered baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to firm up.
  5. Roll small portions into balls the size of a walnut. If sticky, coat hands with butter.
  6. Roll each truffle in granulated sugar for added sweetness and sparkle.
  7. Use a toothpick to create vertical lines on each truffle for decoration, adding a chocolate chip on top as the stem.
  8. Refrigerate the decorated truffles until ready to serve to maintain shape and flavor.
