With only three ingredients and no baking, these easy-to-make Oreo Truffles are the perfect family-friendly dessert snack! Change the Oreo flavors and decorate the truffles to suit any occasion or holiday!
1packageOreos cookies (any flavor)16 oz. OR about 45 cookies
1package cream cheese, softened8 oz.
1packageCandiQuik OR any color of candy melts16 oz.
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with waxed paper and set aside.
Place the Oreos in the bowl of a food processor and blend until the cookies resemble fine crumbs. Measure out 1/4 cup cookie crumbs. Set them aside.
Combine the remaining cookie crumbs with the cream cheese until thoroughly combined. Using a rounded teaspoon, shape the mixture into 1-inch balls. Place on prepared baking sheets. Repeat until all of the cookie/cream cheese mixture has been used.
In a microwave, melt the CandiQuik or candy melts according to package directions. Dip each ball into the melted candy coating, allowing excess to drip off. Replace the covered balls back onto the cookie sheet. Immediately sprinkle a bit of the reserved cookie crumbs over the top of the truffle before the candy coating hardens. Repeat with remaining balls, candy coating, and reserved cookie crumbs. Allow the truffles to stand until firm.
Store truffles in a tightly closed container in the refrigerator.
Notes
Use any flavor of Oreo cookies you like!
One 16-oz. pkg has 45 cookies - so if you buy a bigger package just count out what you need.
You can also decorate the truffles using different colors of candy melts or by adding seasonal sprinkles!
