Ingredients

Scale

For the Oreo Truffle Filling

  • 36 Oreos
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened

For the Coating

  • 10 oz Ghirardelli Dark chocolate melting wafers
  • 10 oz Ghirardelli White vanilla melting wafers

Instructions

  1. Process the Oreos: Add the Oreos to a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs, creating the base for the truffle filling.
  2. Combine with Cream Cheese: Add the softened cream cheese to the Oreo crumbs in the food processor and pulse until combined into a uniform mixture, ensuring a creamy texture.
  3. Finish Mixing: Transfer the mixture to a bowl and use a rubber spatula to thoroughly combine the Oreo crumbs and cream cheese for consistency.
  4. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and to prepare for chilling.
  5. Scoop the Mixture: Use a cookie scoop to portion out the Oreo truffle mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Shape the Balls: Roll each scooped portion with your hands to form smooth, circular Oreo balls.
  7. Chill the Oreo Balls: Place the rolled Oreo balls in the fridge or freezer for at least one hour to firm up.
  8. Melt Dark Chocolate: Reserve ¼ cup of the dark chocolate wafers and melt the remaining wafers until smooth, ready for dipping.
  9. Dip in Dark Chocolate: Dip half of the chilled Oreo balls in the melted dark chocolate and place them back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  10. Melt White Chocolate: Reserve ¼ cup of white chocolate wafers and melt the remaining wafers until smooth.
  11. Dip in White Chocolate: Dip the other half of the Oreo balls in the melted white chocolate and place them on the baking sheet.
  12. Chill to Harden: Refrigerate the dipped Oreo balls until the chocolate coating is fully set and hardened.
  13. Drizzle Dark Chocolate: Melt the reserved dark chocolate wafers and drizzle over the white chocolate-coated Oreo balls for a decorative touch.
  14. Drizzle White Chocolate: Melt the reserved white chocolate wafers and drizzle over the dark chocolate-coated Oreo balls for contrast and presentation.
  15. Final Chill: Place all Oreo balls back in the fridge until the drizzled chocolate sets completely, then serve.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
  • Chilling the balls before dipping helps the chocolate adhere better and sets cleaner coats.
  • Use a piping bag or a small plastic bag with a corner cut off for drizzling chocolate neatly.
  • Store the Oreo balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them fresh for up to a week.
  • You can substitute the Ghirardelli melting wafers with any melting chocolate chips or candy melts of your choice.
