How to make Oreo Truffles!

oreo truffles

These little candies/cookie balls are so rich and sinful. I'm taking some to a friends house in the next couple of days, cause I promised I would make them! They are super, super yummy and so easy to make. I'll guide you through...you don't even have to be an awesome baker to make them, they are that easy!

Oreo Truffles

Ingredients:
– 1 package oreos
– 1 8 oz package cream cheese
– 1 package vanilla bark or vanilla candy melts (I used the Wilton brand)
– 1 package dark chocolate bark or dark chocolate candy melts

Directions:
break up oreos with spoon
1. Pour oreos into a large bowl and break up with a wooden spoon.

add in cream cheese
2. Fold in cream cheese.

mix with blender
3. Mix well with blender (you can also mix in a food processer or blender if you have one).

roll mixture in walnut-sized balls
4. Once mixed, roll into walnut-sized balls onto a cookie sheet. Put into freezer for 1 hour to chill.

melt chocolate
5. Melt both of the chocolates in microwave. Do so at 15 second intervals, then stir and put back into microwave until completely melted. Putting it on a setting for more than 15 seconds without stirring could result in burning. Set aside about a half cup of each of the chocolate and vanilla melts into a sandwich bag for drizzling.

dip balls in chocolate
6. Remove balls from freezer and insert toothpicks into each. Dip balls into chocolate to coat. Use spoon if necessary to cover all areas of the ball. Place ball on waxed paper. Let cool.

drizzle with chocolate
7. Remove all toothpicks from cooled candies. Cut a small slit into corner of sandwich bag and push melted chocolate out of tip to drizzle over balls. Let cool completely.

As you can tell, my drizzling skills need more practice, but it doesn't effect the overall taste. These balls have been a big winner at cookie parties I've attended and got many compliments at a party I took them to.

Hope you enjoyed this fun recipe!

Until next time Swellions!

Looks scrumptious!! I think Lisa made these for me at Christmas. I couldn't stop eating them!

Thanks everyone for such sweet comments. They are so good that my co-worker gave me some money so I could make some more tonight to bring into work. Kristen: I like the idea of them being on pops. So cute. Amy: I've heard of snowman poop, I just didn't realize it was the same thing. Tasha: I'm assuming that on ball would equal like 2 cookies...so bad for you, but so good!
