Servings 11 Oreo truffles
Calories 265kcal
Ingredients
- 20 Oreo cookies regular, not Double Stuf
- 4.5 oz. cream cheese 130g, softened (full-fat!!!)
- 12 oz. white candy melts 340g
- 2 tablespoons St. Patrick's Day sprinkles
Instructions
- Grind the Oreos into a fine powder in a high-speed blender or food processor. This will take 2-3 minutes, depending on your device. Transfer the Oreo powder into a large mixing bowl.
- Add cream cheese to the Oreos. Mix together until well incorporated with a rubber spatula or a hand mixer.
- Roll the mixture into 1” balls. You may use a cookie scoop if you want the truffles to be evenly sized.
- Once shaped, place on a parchment or wax paper-lined baking tray.
- Freeze for 30 minutes to firm up the truffles.
- Once the truffles have been in the freezer for 25 minutes, melt the candy melts. I do this in the microwave for a minute, stirring them every 20 seconds, until they’re completely melted.
- Remove the truffles from the freezer.
- Dip the truffles one by one in the melted candy melts. Use a fork or a spoon to help with this process, swirling them in the candy melts until they’re coated.
- Place on the lined baking sheet, and decorate with the St. Patrick’s Day sprinkles.
- Let the candy coating harden for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a serving dish.
