Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese, softened
  • 12 ounces Melting Chocolate milk, dark, or white
  • Optional Toppings: Sprinkles
  • Optional Toppings: Crushed Oreos
  • Optional Toppings: Sea Salt
  • Optional Toppings: Chopped Nuts
  • 1 teaspoon Coconut Oil optional, for smoother chocolate

Equipment

  • Food processor
  • Zip-top bag (if not using a food processor)
  • Rolling Pin (if not using a food processor)
  • Mixing bowl
  • Cookie sheet
  • Parchment paper or silicone mat
  • Double boiler or microwave-safe bowl
  • Fork or dipping tools
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons

Method
 

  1. Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they are finely crushed. Alternatively, place the cookies in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos and softened cream cheese. Mix well until everything is evenly combined and a smooth dough forms.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Remove the Oreo mixture from the refrigerator. Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls. Place the truffles on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  5. Melt the chocolate using a double boiler or in the microwave. If using a double boiler, heat water in the bottom pot until simmering. Place the chocolate in the top pot and stir until melted and smooth. If using the microwave, microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Add coconut oil for smoother chocolate, if desired.
  6. Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, making sure it's completely coated. Use a fork, dipping tools, or your fingers (carefully!) to do this. Gently tap off any excess chocolate.
  7. Immediately sprinkle the dipped truffles with your desired toppings, such as sprinkles, crushed Oreos, sea salt, or chopped nuts.
  8. Place the dipped and decorated truffles back on the cookie sheet and refrigerate for at least 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
  9. Once the chocolate is set, your Oreo Truffles are ready to enjoy!

Notes

For best results, use full-fat cream cheese. Ensure cream cheese is fully softened before mixing. To prevent chocolate from seizing, melt it slowly and gently, stirring frequently. Chilling the Oreo mixture before rolling helps prevent stickiness. Store leftover truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Variations: Add peppermint extract, instant espresso powder, or peanut butter to the cream cheese mixture. Use white or dark chocolate for the coating.
