Ingredients
Cream Cheese
4 ounces (softened)
Oreo Cookies
1/2-1 package (crushed)
White Chocolate Chips or Vanilla Candy Coating
11-12 ounces (melted)
Instructions
1
In a food processor, combine the softened cream cheese and crushed Oreo cookies. Process on high speed until the mixture is uniform, and no visible white pieces remain, allowing the mixture to stick together.
2
Using your hands, scoop out the mixture and roll it into 3/4 inch balls. Place the formed balls on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper.
3
Freeze the balls for approximately 30 minutes or until firm to the touch.
4
While the truffles are freezing, melt the white chocolate chips or vanilla candy coating in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. For a thinner consistency, you can add 1 tablespoon of oil.
5
Once the truffles are firm, use a toothpick or dipping fork to dip each ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated.
6
For added flair, drizzle melted semi-sweet chocolate over the coated truffles to create a beautiful and delicious presentation, covering any marks from the toothpick.
7
Carefully place the truffles back onto the waxed paper to set. If you prefer a quicker setting time, place them in the refrigerator.
8
Note that the candy coating will set faster than the chocolate chips, so keep an eye on them!
