Chocolate Oreo Truffles Recipes

EASY WHITE CHOCOLATE OREO® TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Line a large baking sheet with waxed paper.
• Place all of the sandwich cookies in a food processor; pulse into fine crumbs.
• Combine cookie crumbs and cream cheese in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until a soft dough forms. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beaters with a spatula to ensure even mixing.
• Roll dough mixture into 1-inch balls; set on the waxed paper. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Melt white chocolate in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 1-minute intervals, stirring after each interval, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Dip balls in melted white chocolate using 2 forks. Return to the waxed paper. Refrigerate until white chocolate is set, about 30 minutes.

EASY OREO TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Crush 9 of the cookies to fine crumbs in food processor; reserve for later use. (Cookies can also be finely crushed in a resealable plastic bag using a rolling pin.) Crush remaining 36 cookies to fine crumbs; place in medium bowl. Add cream cheese; mix until well blended. Roll cookie mixture into 42 balls, about 1-inch in diameter.
• Dip balls in chocolate; place on wax paper-covered baking sheet. (Any leftover chocolate can be stored at room temperature for another use.) Sprinkle with reserved cookie crumbs.
• Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. Store leftover truffles, covered, in refrigerator.

OREO TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Using a food processor, grind cookies to a fine powder. With a mixer, blend cookie powder, cream cheese and vanilla extract until thoroughly mixed (there should be no white traces of cream cheese).
• Roll into small balls and place on wax-lined cookie sheet. Refrigerate for 45 minutes.
• Line two cookie sheets with wax paper. In double-boiler, melt milk chocolate. Dip balls and coat thoroughly. With slotted spoon, lift balls out of chocolate and let excess chocolate drip off. Place on wax-paper-lined cookie sheet.
• In separate double boiler, melt white chocolate. Using a fork, drizzle white chocolate over balls. Let cool.
• Store in airtight container, in refrigerator.
• Note: When I am exceedingly lazy (most often the case these days), I forego the chocolate 'dip' and merely roll my truffles into various mixtures - chopped nuts, chocolate sprinkles, vari-coloured candy sprinkles, cocoa powder, chocolate shavings, coloured sugars -- still pretty -- less work.
