Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 36 pieces Oreo cookies
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 12 ounces Semisweet chocolate or dark chocolate chips
- 2 ounces White chocolate chips (optional, for drizzling)
Instructions
Place the Oreo cookies into a food processor and pulse until they are finely crushed. Alternatively, place the cookies in a large zip-top bag and crush them using a rolling pin until they are finely ground.
In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreo cookies with softened cream cheese. Stir until well blended and a smooth dough-like consistency forms.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a small cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop out approximately 1 tablespoon of the Oreo mixture and roll it into a ball. Place the ball onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
Freeze the Oreo balls for 15-20 minutes, or until firm. This will make them easier to coat in chocolate.
While the Oreo balls are chilling, melt the semisweet or dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted. Be careful not to overheat.
Using a fork or a skewer, dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the coated truffle back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
If desired, melt the white chocolate chips in a separate bowl using the same method. Drizzle the white chocolate over the truffles for decoration.
Allow the coated truffles to set at room temperature until the chocolate is firm, approximately 30 minutes. Alternatively, you can refrigerate them for faster setting.
Once the chocolate has hardened, transfer the truffles to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to one week. Serve chilled or at room temperature and enjoy!
