Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 25 original Oreo cookies
- 4 oz cream cheese softened
Dipping Chocolate
- 1/2 cup chopped white chocolate for dipping
- 1/2 cup chopped dark chocolate for dipping
Decoration
- assorted sprinkles for decoration
Instructions
- Crush the Oreos: Pulse the Oreos in a food processor until crushed into small crumbs.
- Mix with cream cheese: Add the softened cream cheese to the crushed Oreos and process until the mixture forms a big balled clump on one side that looks very shiny.
- Form truffle balls: Use a medium cookie scoop to portion the mixture into 1 inch balls, then roll each ball between the palms of your hands to create a smooth and even shape. Place the truffles onto parchment paper and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- Melt the chocolates: Place each kind of chocolate in separate small microwaveable bowls. Microwave them in 30 second intervals until nearly melted, stopping when a few small unmelted pieces remain, then stir to melt completely with residual heat. This helps prevent burning.
- Dip the truffles: Dip each chilled truffle into your preferred melted chocolate and place back onto the parchment paper. Decorate with sprinkles or extra drizzles of chocolate if desired.
- Harden the chocolate coating: Let the dipped truffles set until the chocolate hardens. You can either leave them at room temperature for about 30 minutes, refrigerate for 10 minutes, or freeze for 3 minutes.
Notes
- Use regular Oreos rather than Double Stuf, as the latter has too much filling for this recipe. Brands like Back to Nature, Newman-O’s, and Famous Amos are good alternatives.
- Any chocolate can be used for dipping: white, milk, ruby, or dark. For sweeter desserts, choose white, milk, or ruby chocolate; for less sweet, choose dark chocolate.
- Store leftover truffles in a single layer on wax or parchment paper inside an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- To freeze, place truffles in an airtight container and freeze for up to 2 months.
