  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: About 36 truffles

Ingredients

– 36 chocolate sandwich cookies (not double stuffed)

– 3 more chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed for topping if desired

– 1 (8 oz) package of full-fat cream cheese, softened

– 16 oz candy melts (vanilla or chocolate flavored), or melted white, milk, or dark chocolate

– 1 1/2 tsp peppermint extract for peppermint version

– Crushed candy canes for garnish in peppermint version

Instructions

1-How to Prepare the Perfect Oreo Truffles: Step-by-Step Guide Creating Oreo truffles is a straightforward process that anyone can master, starting with prepping your workspace. Begin by lining an 18 by 13-inch baking sheet with wax or parchment paper to keep things neat. This step ensures your truffles set properly without sticking.

2-Next, place the 36 chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until they’re finely crushed, keeping their cream filling intact for that signature flavor. If you don’t have a food processor, put them in a resealable bag and crush them with a rolling pin it’s a great hands-on way to get the job done.

3-After crushing, add the 8 oz package of full-fat cream cheese to the cookie crumbs and mix until everything combines smoothly. You can use a stand mixer, electric mixer, or even stir by hand with a spoon for this part.

4-Once mixed, scoop the dough about 1 tablespoon at a time and roll it into 1-inch balls, placing them on your prepared baking sheet. Pop them in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up, which makes dipping easier later.

5-Melting and Dipping Steps: While the balls chill, crush the remaining 3 chocolate sandwich cookies for topping. Then, melt the 16 oz of candy melts or chocolate as per the package instructions, stirring to avoid lumps.

6-Take the balls out of the freezer and dip each one into the melted mixture, using a spoon to cover the top and letting excess drip off. Place them back on the baking sheet and sprinkle with crushed cookies or peppermint bits right away.

7-Let the coating set fully before storing, and you’re done with prep time of about 25 minutes and a total of 30 minutes. This no-bake method keeps things simple and stress-free.
