Description

Learn how to make delicious Oreo balls, also known as truffles, with this simple recipe.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 36 (14.3oz/405g) regular Oreo cookies
  • 8 ounces (226g) full-fat brick cream cheese, softened
  • 12 ounces (339g) semi-sweet or white chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil or coconut oil
  • Optional for garnish: sprinkles, Oreo crumbs, additional melted chocolate

Instructions

  1. Make the Oreo truffle filling: Place the Oreos in a food processor and pulse into a fine crumb.
  2. Beat the Oreo crumbs with the softened cream cheese until combined.
  3. Scoop out a spoonful of the mixture and roll into a ball. Place on a lined baking sheet.
  4. If sticky, refrigerate for 15 minutes before rolling.
  5. Refrigerate the balls for at least 1 hour or freeze for 30 minutes.
  6. Melt chocolate and oil in a bowl, stirring until smooth.
  7. Coat each Oreo ball in melted chocolate, letting excess drip off.
  8. Top with garnishes if desired while chocolate is wet.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set before serving.

Notes

  • Make ahead: Chill the balls for up to 3 days before coating.
  • Freeze the finished truffles for 2–3 months.
  • Use regular, Golden, or Mint Creme Oreos; avoid Double-Stuf.
  • Use brick cream cheese, not spreadable.
  • For best results, use baking chocolate bars.
