A delectable treat perfect for every occasion, these Oreo Balls are incredibly easy to prepare with just three ingredients. Their rich and delightful flavor makes them a crowd favorite at any gathering.
16ozvanilla or chocolate candy meltsor melted white, milk, or dark chocolate
36Oreo cookiesuse original, not Double Stuf, with an additional 3 cookies crushed for garnish, if desired
18 oz package of cream cheese, softened
Instructions
Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with wax paper or parchment paper.
Using a food processor, finely crush 36 Oreo cookies, including the cream filling, into crumbs.
Add the softened cream cheese to the cookie crumbs and pulse intermittently until the mixture is thoroughly blended.
Scoop approximately 1 tablespoon of the mixture at a time, rolling it into 1-inch balls. Arrange the formed balls on the prepared baking sheet.
Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and chill the truffles for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, crush the reserved 3 Oreo cookies if using as a topping.
Melt the candy melts or chocolate following the package instructions until smooth.
Remove the truffles from the freezer, dip each one into the melted chocolate, and use a spoon to drizzle additional chocolate over the tops. Allow the excess to drip off before placing the coated truffles back on the baking sheet.
Immediately sprinkle the tops with crushed Oreo crumbs if desired, and allow the chocolate to set completely.
Store the finished truffles in an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
For a festive peppermint variation, incorporate crushed peppermint candy into the truffle mixture or sprinkle it on top of the chocolate coating.
