Oreo Truffles

May 26, 2012 by pictureperfectcooking

I have had this recipe for several years and realized that I had never posted it on here.  That had to be remedied because it is not everyday that you find an almost fool-proof candy recipe, but this is really close!

The success of a lot of candy making depends on the temperature and humidity of the air around you, not just the cooking method.  This little gem doesn’t seem to mind as much and I think it is because of the way it is made.  There is no cooked sugar or egg whites, just three simple ingredients and a little bit of your time.

1 package Oreo cookies

8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature

Candy coating

In a food processor, crush the whole package of Oreos until you have small crumbs like this:

Mix these crumbs with the softened cream cheese until thoroughly combined.  Roll into 1 inch balls and chill in the fridge or freezer for about 15 minutes to set.

Melt the candy coating according to package directions and dip each truffle to completely coat.  Let these set until the coating hardens then enjoy!  I took a little of the leftover candy coating and drizzled it over the top of the truffles to decorate them a little.
