Deb's tips
- 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.
- Instead of melting the chocolate in the microwave, you could also use the double boiler method to keep the chocolate warm.
- I like to shape the Oreo cookie crumbs and cream cheese mixture into 1-inch balls for the perfect size treat.
- For easy mixing, ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing the dough.
- 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.
Variations
- You can switch up the chocolate that you dip these Oreo balls in, you can use semi-sweet chocolate chips, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and white chocolate chips.
- Golden Oreos also work great to make these delicious Oreo truffles.
- White chocolate candy melts or melted white chocolate can also be used also.
- Instead of sprinkles, you could also top these with chopped nuts, more crushed Oreo cookies, or even chocolate drizzle.
Storage
Refrigerate - Store this perfect treat in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
