Ingredients
Scale
Oreo Truffle Base
- 1 package Oreo cookies (15.35 ounces)
- 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Coating and Decoration
- 12 ounces white chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (optional)
- Red and pink sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the Oreo Mixture: Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin. In a bowl, mix the crushed Oreos with the softened cream cheese and vanilla extract until a smooth dough forms.
- Shape the Truffles: Scoop small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill the Truffles: Refrigerate for about 30 minutes until firm to ensure they hold their shape during coating.
- Melt the Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until smooth. Stir in the vegetable oil if you want a thinner, smoother coating.
- Coat the Truffles: Dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate and let the excess drip off. Place them back on the parchment-lined sheet and immediately add red and pink sprinkles on top for decoration.
- Set and Serve: Let the coating set at room temperature or refrigerate briefly until hardened. Serve and enjoy your festive Valentine’s Day Oreo truffles.
Notes
- Use softened cream cheese at room temperature for easier mixing and smoother texture.
- If you don’t have a food processor, place the Oreos in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin for fine crumbs.
- Adding vegetable oil to the melted chocolate thins it out, making it easier to coat the truffles evenly.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- You can substitute white chocolate chips with dark or milk chocolate for variety.
