Servings: 24 truffles
Calories: 145kcal
Ingredients
- 35 Oreos
- 8 ounces cream cheese room temp
- 12 ounces White Candy Melts White Chocolate Chips or Almond Bark
- Black Writing Gel or Candy Eyes
Instructions
- Place the Oreos in a food processor and process until you have crumbs.
- Add the cream cheese to the food processor and process until combined.
- Using a cookie scoop, scoop out the dough and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Place the dough balls in the freezer for about 15 minutes or until they have firmed up.
- While you're chilling the Oreo truffles dough, melt the candy melts according to package directions. If using white chocolate chips melt them in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat them.
- Remove the truffles from the freezer and, using the palms of your hands, roll each truffle into a round ball.
- Using a fork, dip the entire truffle into the melted chocolate, tap lightly on the side of the bowl to remove excess chocolate, then slide the truffle off carefully with a toothpick and set it onto a wax paper-lined cookie sheet.
- Immediately place the candy eyes on the top or the side of the truffle before the chocolate hardens. If you are using sprinkles, add them at this time as well.
- Return to the refrigerator and allow the chocolate to set and harden, usually about 30 minutes, before serving.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
FOOD SAFETY NOTE
Because these Oreo truffles contain cream cheese, you should not leave them out at room temperature for longer than 2 hours because there's an increased risk of bacterial growth, which can cause foodborne illnesses.
