Description

Deliciously rich and creamy Oreo Truffles that combine crushed Oreos and cream cheese, coated in smooth chocolate candy melts and finished with a decorative white chocolate drizzle. Perfect for parties, holidays, or as a decadent treat.


Ingredients

Oreo Mixture

  • 36 Oreos (including filling)
  • 6 oz cream cheese, softened

Chocolate Coating

  • 10 oz chocolate candy melts
  • 5 oz white candy melts (for decorating)


Instructions

  1. Crush the Oreos: Place 36 Oreos, including the cream filling, into a food processor. Secure the lid and pulse at high speed until the Oreos become a very fine crumb.
  2. Combine with Cream Cheese: Add 6 ounces of softened cream cheese to the food processor. Mix on high until the cream cheese and Oreo crumbs are fully combined into a dough-like texture.
  3. Shape the Truffles: Remove the blade and transfer the mixture into a bowl. Using a medium cookie scoop or cake baller, portion out the mixture and roll each scoop into a ball by hand.
  4. Freeze the Truffles: Place the shaped truffle balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze them for 15 minutes to help set.
  5. Melt the Chocolate Candy Coating: While truffles are freezing, melt 10 ounces of chocolate candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl using 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth.
  6. Coat the Truffles: Using a butter knife, place a small blob of melted chocolate on the thickest part and put a truffle on top to hold it. Spoon melted chocolate over the truffle until fully coated. Transfer to a wax paper-lined baking sheet using another butter knife. Repeat with all truffles.
  7. Decorate with White Chocolate: After the chocolate coating sets, melt 5 ounces of white candy melts. Pour into a disposable pastry bag, snip a small tip, and drizzle over the truffles for decoration.
  8. Set and Serve: Allow the decorated truffles to set for about 20 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Softening the cream cheese beforehand ensures easier mixing and a smoother texture.
  • Freezing the truffles before coating helps maintain their shape while dipping.
  • Use a wax or parchment paper to prevent sticking during setting.
  • Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep fresh for up to one week.
  • For variation, try using dark or milk chocolate candy melts instead of the standard chocolate melts.
