    Ingredients and substitutions

    Here are the ingredients and possible substitutions to make these delicious oreo truffles at home, scroll down the page to see the quantities in the recipe card.

    Oreo balls :

    • Oreo cookie: Use regular Oreo cookies instead of double Stuf Oreos cookies, you can replace them with golden Oreos or mint Oreos.
    • Frosting: We usually use full-fat cream cheese softened (Philadelphia brand) but you can easily replace it with mascarpone cheese, lotus biscoff spread or Nutella spread.

    Coating :

    • Chocolate: Use dark chocolate or just semi-sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips (or vanilla almond bark) or milk chocolate chips, you can also use candy melts or chocolate wafers like Ghirardelli melting wafers.
    • Decoration: With melted chocolate using a piping bag or a parchment paper cone, or simply Oreo cookie crumbs, chocolate sprinkles, chopped nuts, crushed candy canes, etc.

    ⚠️ You will find the quantities and complete instructions in the recipe card at the end of the page.

    How to make Oreo Cream Cheese balls

    Crush Oreos

    • Place Oreo cookies in a food processor and blend until you have very fine Oreo crumbs.

    The more finely the cookies are blended, the more you can make nice round and smooth Oreo cookie balls.

    Tip: You can also use a plastic bag and a rolling pin to finely crush the cookies into fine crumbs.

    Add frosting

    1. Place the cookie crumbs in a medium bowl and add the cream cheese frosting.
    2. Mix with a tablespoon until you have a compact and sticky mixture.
    3. Cover with plastic wrap and leave to rest in the fridge for a while to make it easier to shape the balls.

    Tip: If the batter seems too soft and sticky then add more cookies and if you have trouble picking up the batter then add more frosting.

    Chocolate coating

    1. Melt semisweet chocolate or white chocolate in a bowl in a double boiler or in the microwave until completely melted.
    2. Then place it in a small deep bowl.
    3. Remove balls from the freezer and dip Oreo balls one by one into the melted chocolate.
    4. Shake off the excess chocolate drip and place truffles on a prepared baking sheet with parchment paper or until the chocolate hardens.
    5. Decorate the top of the Oreo balls with melted white or dark chocolate or crushed Oreo.

    Tip: Using homemade chocolate tools or a toothpick, prick the frozen Oreo ball to dip it more easily into the melted chocolate. You can add a fat to obtain smooth melted chocolate, such as coconut oil or mycryo (cocoa butter)
