🥘Ingredients

For the Truffles

1 (14.3 oz) package Oreo cookies (about 36 cookies)
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened

For the Coating

12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tbsp coconut oil or vegetable shortening (optional, for smoother coating)

👨‍🍳Directions

1Place the entire package of Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs.
2Transfer the crumbs to a large mixing bowl.
3Add the softened cream cheese to the Oreo crumbs and mix thoroughly with a spatula or your hands until a uniform dough forms.
4The mixture should be moist and hold together when pressed.
5Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
6Roll the dough into 1-inch balls (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them on the prepared sheet.
7Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
8In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted.
9Allow the chocolate to cool slightly but remain liquid.
10Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate, coating completely.
11Let excess chocolate drip off, then place the truffle back on the parchment-lined sheet.
12Refrigerate the truffles for at least 1 hour until the chocolate is set and firm.
13Serve cold or at room temperature.
