Who doesn’t love an Oreo? I’m sure they are out there but they must be the minority. How about delicious oreo’s crushed, mashed up with cream cheese and coated in white chocolate? Well, darn, now I gave away the whole recipe…Really it is that simple, but they look so fancy and pretty sitting on your Christmas goody platter it will be hard to believe a lot of work didn’t go into them.
Oreo Truffles
Ingredients:
1-16 oz. pack of Oreo Cookies (go for the Double Stuf)
1-8 oz. block of cream cheese, softened
1-16 oz. bag white chocolate chips
2 tsp. canola or vegetable oil
Directions:
Crush all cookies to fine powder using a blender, food processor, or I use a coffee grinder (try not to eat the filling out of them, that goes in there too). Set a side a Tbsp. or so of crushed cookies.
In the bowl of a hand or stand mixer combine cream cheese and crushed Oreo’s until well blended.
Cover bowl and place in fridge for an hour or so, allowing mixture to firm up.
Roll into balls roughly 1″ in diameter.
Spread out waxed or parchment paper- a large enough piece to hold all your truffles.
Place white chocolate chips in microwave safe dish and heat in 30 second increments, stirring well each time until fully melted, stir in oil. This will make your chocolate loose and easier for dipping.
Use a fork to dip truffles in melted chocolate, rolling until fully covered. Tap the side of the bowl to knock off excess chocolate.
Place truffles on waxed paper, immediately sprinkle lightly with crushed cookies you set aside. Allow chocolate to set on truffles until hardened.
Place in an airtight container.

If I used chocolate chips instead of white , would I use the same amount of oil, I would use chocolate spinkles to put on top of them! Thank you, Ann
