Ingredients
Scale
Truffle Base
- 1 (14.3 oz) package Golden Oreos
- 1 (8 oz) block cream cheese, softened
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Coating and Decoration
- 12 oz white melting chocolate
- Sprinkles, for decoration
Instructions
- Process Oreos: In a food processor, pulse the Golden Oreos until they are finely ground into crumbs. This creates a smooth base for your truffles.
- Mix Ingredients: Transfer the Oreo crumbs to a mixing bowl. Break the softened cream cheese into small pieces and add to the crumbs along with the vanilla extract. Use clean hands to thoroughly combine the mixture until it forms a smooth, sticky dough.
- Shape Truffles: Roll the mixture into small, bite-sized balls. For best results, place the balls on a tray and freeze for 10-15 minutes to firm up before coating.
- Melt Chocolate: Gently melt the white chocolate using a double boiler method or following the package instructions until smooth and fluid.
- Coat Truffles: Using a fork or dipping tool, roll each chilled truffle in the melted white chocolate to coat evenly. Set them on parchment paper and immediately sprinkle with your choice of colorful sprinkles before the coating sets.
- Set and Store: Allow the coated truffles to cool and the chocolate to harden at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Once set, store the truffles in the fridge for up to one week and enjoy!
Notes
- Ensure cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
- Using your hands to mix provides better texture and integration than tools.
- Freezing the shaped balls before coating helps prevent them from falling apart.
- You can substitute white melting chocolate with candy melts for convenience.
- Sprinkles add festive color but are optional.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
