    Today, I am combining two of my favorite desserts - gingersnap cookies and cheesecake - in an easy, no-bake dessert that is perfect for Thanksgiving or any holiday get together!  Before we dive right into the recipe, are you a crunchy, crispy gingersnap lover or are you a dunk & dip gingersnap aficionado?  I LOVE to dip gingersnaps in a super cold glass of milk and let them get just the slightest bit soggy. Is that weird?  But rest assured, there is nothing weird about these gingersnap cheesecake truffles!

    These truffles have all the spicy goodness of gingersnap and gingerbread cookies without all of that pesky baking!  And they are dipped in and drizzled with white chocolate ... ah, life is good!  You just need a quick trip to your local grocery store and some serious will power not to forget all about making truffles and eat the filling by the spoonful!
