No-Bake Oreo Truffles
- 1 package (15 1/4 Oz. Size) Oreos (any Flavor, Double Stuffed Or Regular Both Work)
- 1 package (8 Oz. Size) Cream Cheese, Softened
- 12 ounces, weight White Melting Chocolate (Don't Use White Chocolate Chips; Use High Quality Melting Chocolate; I Used Chopped Bakers Bars)
- 6 ounces, weight Semi Sweet Melting Chocolate For Topping (Or Sprinkles, Or Oreo Crumbles)
- Place the Oreos (filling and all) in a food processor (do this in batches if necessary) and process until fine crumbs are formed and large chunks are gone.
- Put the crumbs into a large bowl.
- Mix in the softened cream cheese until very well combined and the dough becomes sticky.
- Roll about 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoon sized scoops of dough into balls and set aside on a plate or in a container that you can fit in the freezer.
- Freeze the balls for at least 30 minutes.
- Bakers chocolate bars melt really well in the microwave and are ideal for dipping.
- (Chocolate chips, not so much.)
- Place the white chocolate in a small microwave safe bowl and heat for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between, until melted.
- Heres how I dipped the Oreo balls into the chocolate: Cover a few small plates with wax paper.
- Remove 1-2 Oreo balls from the freezer at a time.
- Drop them into the chocolate and roll them around carefully with a fork (try not to pierce them) There is likely one part that is flatter, which was the bottom of the ball when it sat in the freezer.
- Slide the fork underneath the flatter part and lift.
- Slide the bottom of the fork across the edge of the bowl to let the excess chocolate drip off, then set on top of the wax paper.
- The chocolate sets pretty quickly which is nice, but I would transport them right to the fridge to speed up the process and keep them nice and smooth.
- Repeat until all of the balls are coated.
- You may now refer to these, as truffles!
- For the decoration: This was just fun.
- I melted the semi-sweet chocolate in the microwave (similar 30 second increments as before) and placed the balls on a large plate once they had all set.
- Then, I dipped the tip of a fork into the chocolate and shook it a bit to let some of the chocolate drip back into the bowl.
- Then, I raised the fork high above the truffles and waved the fork around so the chocolate would fling off in thin streams onto the Oreo balls.
- It was really entertaining.
- I got chocolate all over the counter.
- But they looked really cool so it was worth it.
- You can also top them with sprinkles or Oreo crumbs right after theyve been dipped.
- Then youre done!
