Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 24 Oreo Cookies (about 1 package)
  • 8 oz (225 g) Cream Cheese, softened
  • 12 oz (340 g) Chocolate for Coating (milk, dark, or white)

Optional Toppings

  • Sprinkles
  • Chopped Nuts (e.g., pecans or almonds)
  • Crushed Oreos
  • Crushed Candy Canes (for mint variation)

Instructions

  1. Crush the Oreos: Place Oreo cookies into a large zip-top bag and crush them using a rolling pin or pulse in a food processor until they become fine crumbs with no large chunks.
  2. Combine with Cream Cheese: In a mixing bowl, thoroughly stir the Oreo crumbs with softened cream cheese until the mixture is uniform, sticky, and able to hold shape without crumbling.
  3. Shape into Balls: Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, roll the mixture into 1-inch diameter bite-sized balls. Lay them on a parchment-lined tray or baking sheet.
  4. Chill the Truffles: Refrigerate the tray for at least 30 minutes to firm up the truffles for easier coating.
  5. Dip in Melted Chocolate: Melt your chosen chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, stirring until smooth. Dip each chilled ball fully in the chocolate, then place back on parchment paper.
  6. Add Toppings and Set: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle optional nuts, crushed Oreos, or sprinkles on top. Chill again for about 15 minutes until the chocolate hardens.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for a smooth, easy blend.
  • Chill truffle balls before dipping to prevent them from breaking apart in chocolate.
  • Temper the chocolate properly for a glossy finish and firm snap.
  • Experiment with flavor additions like espresso powder or vanilla extract.
  • Store truffles in the fridge to maintain texture and freshness.
