These decedent Oreo truffles are perfect for any occasion! It’s hard to beat homemade chocolates, especially when Oreos are involved.
Start by adding Oreo cookies into your blender or food processor. My Ninja works perfect for this! Pulse until the cookies turn into a powder.
Set aside about a half-cup of the mixture – you will use this later to top the truffles with.
To the crumbled cookies, mix in the cream cheese and instant coffee. I do this step in my Ninja, but by hand works as well – it just takes a while. Form balls that are about one inch in diameter and put in the freezer to harden.
Melt your chocolate in either a double boiler or in the microwave, being careful not to overheat it.
Make sure your cookie balls are cold – this helps ensure they don’t melt while you are covering them in chocolate.
Dip the truffles, one at a time, in the melted chocolate and set them on wax paper. Before the chocolate hardens, sprinkle the Oreo bits on top.
I usually put them in the freezer for a few minutes to harden and then stack them in an air-tight container for storage in the refrigerator.
Once the chocolate has hardened, these truffles are ready to eat! They do taste the best after a few days, if they last that long. 🙂
