Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 36 pieces Oreo cookies
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 16 ounces Dark chocolate chips or melting wafers
- 1 teaspoon Vegetable oil
- Optional toppings (e.g., crushed Oreos, sprinkles, sea salt)
Instructions
Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they are finely crushed into crumbs. Alternatively, you can place them in a sealed plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreo cookies with the softened cream cheese. Use your hands or a spatula to mix until the mixture is thoroughly combined and forms a dough-like consistency.
Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the mixture and roll them into 1-inch balls between your palms. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Chill the rolled balls in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips or melting wafers. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted. Stir in the vegetable oil to thin the chocolate slightly for easier coating.
Using a fork or a dipping tool, dip each chilled truffle ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Tap off any excess chocolate and return the coated truffle to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle your desired toppings (e.g., crushed Oreos, sprinkles, or sea salt) onto the truffles.
Let the truffles sit at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate coating is fully set.
Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
