Oreo Truffles

December 16th, 2009 in recipes

I posted this recipe over at Little Window Shoppe and had over 125,000 hits which is so funny since this is the easiest go-to Holiday Treat Recipe!

I recently learned from my aunt how to make the BEST Oreo Truffles ever. When I found out that all I needed was a box of Oreos, a bag of chocolate chips and a package of cream cheese, I had to give it a try. These really do taste heavenly and they are so incredibly easy to make too.

Step 1:

Grind up one whole package of Oreos in your blender/food processor/hand chopper. Save about 1 cup of ground-up Oreos and put it to the side.

Step 2:

Add one 8 oz package of cream cheese (at room temperature) to the remaining ground-up Oreos and combine well, then form them into 1 inch balls (about golf ball size).

Step 3:

Melt one package of chocolate chips (whichever is your favorite - milk, semi-sweet, dark chocolate) on a double broiler or very carefully in a microwave. Dip the balls into the melted chocolate and coat well, then place them on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper.

Step 4:

Take the cup of ground up Oreos and sprinkle the extra Oreo crumbs all over the truffles. Let them sit in the fridge until the chocolate sets (mine only took 20 minutes). Enjoy!

    Wow! These look so dang yummy! But what about the Oreos? What kind of chocolate are they using and from which valley in Venezuela? (total inside joke…)

    How do you coat them in the chocolate? Do you just drop them in and then fish them out? They look really yummy!

    This is probably one of my favorite recipes. Always a hit. I just made some with the peppermint Oreos. I already got some marriage proposals from women.
