Frequently asked questions (FAQ's)
No, for this recipe you will want to leave the stuffing in the Oreo cookies.
That may mean that they are not cold enough, return them to the freezer for another 15 minutes before dipping again.
Yes, a high powered blender can also be used to crush the cookies, but you'll need to pulse until they are fine crumbs. It would be best to work in batches. If you don't have a processor, you can use a rolling pin and a freezer bag to crush the cookies into fine crumbs instead.
Deb's tips for the perfect Oreo truffles
For easy mixing, ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing the dough.
- Instead of melting the chocolate in the microwave, you could also use the double boiler method to keep the chocolate warm.
- Though you could transfer the crumbles into a bowl and use a hand mixer to combine, using the food processor saves a step.
- Adding a tablespoon of coconut oil to the mixture makes the chocolate smoother.
How to store leftovers
Refrigerate - Store the no bake Oreo balls in an airtight container for up to one week.
Freezer - Store in a freezer safe bag for up to 3 months. Allow to thaw in the fridge before serving.
