Ingredients
- Oreo cookies – 36 cookies
- Cream cheese – 8 ounces, softened
- White chocolate chips or melting wafers – 16 ounces
- Food coloring – Assorted pastel colors
- Sprinkles or edible decorations – For garnish
Instructions
- Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor.
- Mix the crushed Oreos with softened cream cheese until fully combined into a dough-like consistency.
- Scoop out portions of the mixture and shape them into egg shapes. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate the shaped eggs for 30 minutes to firm up.
- Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring between each until smooth.
- Divide the melted chocolate into separate bowls and add different pastel food colorings, stirring until well blended.
- Dip each chilled Oreo egg into the colored chocolate, allowing the excess to drip off before placing it back on the parchment paper.
- Decorate with sprinkles or edible decorations while the chocolate is still wet.
- Let the truffles sit at room temperature until the chocolate sets completely.
Notes
- For easier dipping, use a fork or dipping tool and gently tap off excess chocolate before placing the truffles on the baking sheet.
- If the chocolate is too thick, add a teaspoon of coconut oil or vegetable shortening to thin it out.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Try using different Oreo flavors for a fun variation, such as golden Oreos or mint Oreos.
