Create these simple, rich Oreo Balls, often called Oreo Truffles. This no-bake dessert uses only three main ingredients for a creamy, chocolate-coated bite perfect for parties or gifting.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (14.3 ounces) Oreo cookies, about 36 cookies
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 16 ounces melting chocolate or chocolate almond bark
  • Optional: Sprinkles or extra melted chocolate for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Place all Oreo cookies, including the cream filling, into a food processor. Pulse until you have fine crumbs.
  2. Transfer the Oreo crumbs to a medium bowl. Add the softened cream cheese. Mix with a rubber spatula or clean hands until the mixture is completely combined and forms a thick dough.
  3. Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. You should get approximately 30 to 35 balls. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Chill the Oreo balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This step helps them firm up before dipping.
  5. Melt the chocolate coating according to package directions. You can use a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each interval.
  6. Dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Use a fork or a dipping tool to lift the ball out, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
  7. Return the coated balls to the parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired, immediately top with sprinkles or drizzle with contrasting melted chocolate before the coating sets.
  8. Refrigerate the finished Oreo balls for about 15 minutes, or until the chocolate coating is firm. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • For the best texture, ensure your cream cheese is fully softened to room temperature before mixing.
  • If the mixture is too soft to roll after mixing, chill it for 15 minutes before forming the balls.
  • When melting chocolate, avoid adding water, as this will cause the chocolate to seize and become unusable.
  • These homemade candy recipes keep well in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
