Valentine’s Day Oreo Truffles Recipe
Yield: 50 balls
Ingredients:
- 1 (16 ounce) package Oreo Chocolate Sandwich Cookies
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 16 ounces melting chocolate, candy melts, or almond bark
- Sprinkles
Instructions:
- Prepare a baking sheet with waxed paper.
- Place the cookies into a food processor and pulse until the cookies become fine crumbs.
- Cut the cream cheese into chunks and add the cream cheese to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture is well blended and forms a large ball.
- Using a small cookie scoop, portion the cookie dough into 1-inch balls and roll into a smooth ball.
- Optional: For best results, freeze the oreo balls prior to decorating.
- Dip each ball into the melted chocolate and tap to remove the excess chocolate. Place the cookie ball on the prepared cookie sheet and immediately decorate with sprinkles.
- Place the cookie sheet in the refrigerator for about 1 hour or until firm.
To freeze:
- Prepare the cookie balls as directed and place on the baking sheet.
- Put the baking sheet into the freezer until the cookie balls are frozen.

Tip: If using candy melts, add vegetable shortening or coconut oil to the candy as it melts. This makes the candy spread move evenly and creates a smoother shell around the truffle.

How to customize these Oreo truffles
For those looking to customize their truffles, white candy melts or Ghirardelli melting wafers can be tinted with a dash of pink color to embody the spirit of love and celebration. This candy coating is melted in a microwave-safe bowl at second intervals, ensuring a smooth chocolate mixture without overheating.
The easiest way to melt almond bark or chocolate is by heating it in short second increments, stirring in between to prevent any scorching. This method, detailed in the full recipe and on old posts with detailed instructions, ensures a glossy finish perfect for dipping.
