Equipment

  • Food Processor
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • 1.5 Tablespoon Cookie Scoop
  • Saucepan if using double boiler method
  • Metal Bowl if using double boiler method

Ingredients

  • 36 Vanilla Oreos about 15 ounces
  • 1 8- ounce block cream cheese softened
  • 14-16 ounces white chocolate melts *see notes
  • Red oil-based food coloring optional (or powdered)
  • Sprinkles optional

Instructions

  • Prepare a sheet pan that will fit in your freezer or fridge with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Place Oreos a food processor and run in 10 second increments until they are fine crumbs.
  • Transfer cookie crumbs to a mixing bowl, then add cream cheese and mix well. I like to do this with my hands to make sure it is well combined.
  • Make truffles using a 1.5-tablespoon cookie scoop and place on prepared baking sheet. Roll into smooth balls, then place in the freezer for 30 minutes or fridge for an hour.
  • Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, or use a double boiler by setting a metal bowl over a pot with about 1 inch of simmering water and melting gently over low heat.
  • If dyeing the chocolate, do so once it is fully melted by adding a small drop at a time to get your desired color.
  • Using a fork, dip each truffle in the melted chocolate and coat fully, tapping off any excess, then place on sheet.
  • If wanting to do a drizzle, chill in the fridge or freezer for about 10 minutes, then decorate as needed.
  • If adding any sprinkles, do while the chocolate is still wet (for drizzle, add almost immediately) then allow the chocolate to set on the counter for about 2 hours.

Notes

  • *I used 16 ounces of white chocolate to coat everything and add a few finishing touches and still had a bit left. In my experience, having extra chocolate makes the coating process much smoother.
  • Chill Before Dipping: Freezing the truffles briefly helps them hold their shape when dipped in melted chocolate.
  • Low Heat Melting: Melt chocolate gently using short microwave bursts or a double boiler to avoid scorching.
  • Tap Off Excess: Gently tap the fork on the bowl to remove extra chocolate for a smooth finish.
  • Work in Batches: Dip a few truffles at a time so the chocolate stays fluid and easy to work with.
  • Room Temperature Set: Let the truffles set at room temperature for the glossiest finish.
