Ingredients for Oreo Truffles

Instructions:

In a large bowl, combine the finely crushed Oreo cookies (centers included), cream cheese, and vanilla extract. Mix the cookie crumbs with the cream cheese with an eclectic hand or stand mixer until fully combined and one dough-like mixture is formed. 

How to make Oreo Truffles

Using a cookie scoop, scoop dough and form an even, smooth, round ball using the palms of your hands. Place each ball on a lined cookie sheet prepared with parchment paper. Pinch both sides of the truffle ball with your fingers to create the football shape. Pinch the top of the ball rounding downwards towards the bottom pinches.

How to make Oreo Truffles

Work each ball until you create the shape desired. Place a cookie sheet inside the refrigerator to chill for 1 hour. Near the end of the chill time, begin to prepare the melting chocolate. Dip each football truffle inside the chocolate using two forks or dipping tools, coating it completely before adding it back on the cookie sheet. 

How to make Oreo truffles shaped like footballs! GREAT for the Super Bowl!

Repeat this process for all truffles and place the sheet back inside the refrigerator to chill for an additional 30 minutes. Near the end of the chill time, prepare the white candy melts. When the candy melts are silky smooth, spoon the mixture into a piping bag with a small round attachment.

Pipe small white lines over the top of the football starting with one line down the middle and 2-3 smaller lines across. Chill for an additional 30 minutes before serving. If you don’t own a piping bag, you can use a snack-sized zip-top bag and cut a small hole in the corner to simulate a piping bag.

  • These truffles are best served chilled.
  • Store these truffles in an airtight container inside the refrigerator.
