Ingredients
Scale
Oreo Truffles
Main Ingredients:
- 36 Oreo cookies (original, not double stuffed)
- 1 package (8 ounces / 226 grams) cream cheese (full fat)
Coating:
- 2–3 cups melted white chocolate (can be replaced with semisweet chocolate)
Topping:
- ¼ cup (60 milliliters / 4 tablespoons) crushed Oreo cookies
Instructions
- Pulverize Oreo cookies in a food processor until they transform into ultra-fine, powdery crumbs, ensuring no large chunks remain.
- Incorporate softened cream cheese into the Oreo crumbs, blending thoroughly in the food processor until a uniform, dense mixture forms.
- Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion out the mixture and gently roll between palms to create uniform, compact spheres approximately 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) in diameter.
- Arrange the truffle balls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, maintaining slight separation between each piece.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and chill the truffles for 15-20 minutes, allowing them to firm up and become easier to handle.
- Melt chocolate using a double boiler or microwave, stirring periodically to ensure smooth consistency and prevent burning.
- Carefully dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate, using a fork to lift and allow excess chocolate to drip off, creating an even coating.
- Return chocolate-coated truffles to the parchment-lined baking sheet, optionally sprinkling additional crushed Oreo crumbs on top for decorative texture.
- Allow truffles to rest at room temperature for 10-15 minutes, permitting the chocolate shell to set completely before serving or storing.
Notes
- Crush Oreos finely to ensure smooth, uniform texture for perfect truffles.
- Cream cheese binds the mixture, creating a creamy, rich interior that melts in your mouth.
- Freezing helps solidify the balls, making chocolate coating easier and preventing crumbling.
- Use high-quality chocolate for dipping to elevate the overall flavor and appearance.
- Crushed Oreo topping adds extra crunch and visual appeal to the finished truffles.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days to maintain freshness.
