Ingredients

  • 16 ounces Oreo Cookies
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 16 ounces candy melts or almond bark
  • Sprinkles

Instructions

  • Prepare a baking sheet with waxed paper.
  • Place the cookies into a food processor and pulse until the cookies become fine crumbs.
  • Cut the cream cheese into chunks and add the cream cheese to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture is well blended and forms a large ball.
  • Using a small cookie scoop, portion the cookie dough into 1-inch balls and roll into a smooth ball.
  • Optional: For best results, freeze the oreo balls prior to decorating.
  • Dip each ball into the melted chocolate and tap to remove the excess chocolate. Place the cookie ball on the prepared cookie sheet and immediately decorate with sprinkles.
  • Place the cookie sheet in the refrigerator for about 1 hour or until firm.

Notes

  • If you are using chocolate instead of candy melts be sure to temper your chocolate so that it stays smooth.
  • When dipping the Valentine's Day Oreo Truffles in chocolate if they are falling apart put them in the freezer for 30 minutes to firm them back up.
  • If you are having trouble getting the chocolate to coat the balls evenly, try using a toothpick to help them dip into the chocolate.
  • If using candy melts, add vegetable shortening or coconut oil to the candy as it melts. This makes the candy spread move evenly and creates a smoother shell around the truffle.
