OREO TRUFFLES

My sister-in-law Kristy introduced these to the Denney family and from that moment we knew she was meant to be in our family.

I mean who doesn’t love Oreos!

The first time I made these Oreo Truffles was for the Super Bowl. I thought I could skip the step where you freeze the balls and started dipping immediately and I ended up with saggy balls.

Trust me. You cannot skip this step.

They are so good with Nutter Butters in the middle too instead of Oreos. Watch out. These may be the fastest way possible to consume calories. Especially when I can pop these like popcorn.

I even made these into Melted Oreo Snowmen!

TIPS FOR SUCCESS

  • Make sure your oreo centers are frozen hard before dipping in almond bark.
  • If using vanilla almond bark, melt in small batches. Sometimes the truffles can bleed black crumbs into the bark and you don’t want to ruin a whole batch of almond bark.
  • To make them look really professional, dip in almond bark and let it set. Go back and drizzle more almond bark on top for that finished look.

HOW TO MAKE OREO TRUFFLES

  1. The easiest way to do this is throw the Oreos in a food processor until crumbs then add the cream cheese until combined. If you don’t have a food processor you can crush your Oreos in a Ziploc bag and then add the cream cheese to the bag and blend it with your hands.
  2. Roll into 1-inch balls and place on baking sheet or tray. Freeze until firm, about 30-60 minutes. Do not skip this step! Using a fork, dip Oreo balls into melted chocolate coating, tapping fork on the side to get excess off, and place onto waxed paper to harden (mine’s soft in the picture because it was so hot outside). You may have to dip them in batches keeping the others in the freezer so that the balls stay firm.
  3. Chill and serve cold or room temperature. Makes about 30 truffles. Can freeze them up to two months.

Notes

If you are using Almond Bark, melt it in batches. Towards the end of dipping some of the Oreo can bleed into the bark so melting in batches prevents a whole bowl of almond bark being ruined. I have not had luck with candy melts except for the Ghirardelli. I prefer almond bark or vanilla coating like Candiquik.
