Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 36 (14.3oz / 405g) regular Oreo cookies (not Double-Stuf)
- 8 ounces (226g) full-fat brick cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 12 ounces (339g) semi-sweet or white chocolate, coarsely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil or coconut oil
Optional Garnish
- Sprinkles
- Oreo crumbs
- Additional melted chocolate
Instructions
- Crush Oreos: Place the entire Oreos, including the cream filling and cookies, into a food processor or blender. Pulse until they become fine crumbs.
- Mix with Cream Cheese: Using a hand-held or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, or continuing with the food processor if large enough, blend the Oreo crumbs together with softened cream cheese until fully combined into a uniform mixture.
- Form Balls: Scoop out about 18–22 grams (one tablespoon) of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a smooth ball. Place the balls on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper. If the mixture is too sticky to handle, refrigerate for 15 minutes before rolling. Cover and refrigerate the formed balls for at least one hour or up to three days. For faster set, freeze for 30 minutes but do not freeze longer unless storing in refrigerator afterward.
- Melt Chocolate: In a glass bowl or 2-cup liquid measuring cup, combine chopped chocolate and vegetable or coconut oil. Melt in the microwave in 20-second increments, stirring between each, until smooth and fully melted. Alternatively, use a double boiler method, stirring constantly until melted. Let the chocolate cool for 5 minutes before dipping to avoid melting the Oreo balls.
- Dip Truffles in Chocolate: Working with one ball at a time, submerge it into the melted chocolate, swirl to coat fully, then lift out carefully using a fork or dipping tool. Gently tap off excess chocolate on the side of the bowl. Use a toothpick to slide the truffle off the fork onto parchment-lined surface.
- Garnish: While the chocolate is still wet, add sprinkles or sift Oreo crumbs on top if desired. Drizzle additional melted chocolate over the truffles for decoration if you like.
- Set Chocolate: Refrigerate the dipped truffles for at least one hour to let the chocolate harden completely before serving.
- Storage: Store the Oreo balls in an airtight container layered with parchment paper in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
