Oreo truffles

79Mustang03 · November 2008

1-package reg. oreo's

1-real cream cheese ( not low fat)

1-pack almond ( white) bark ( cut into med. chunks)

Crush all oreo's ( I use a food prosseser) mix in cream cheese ( a little at a time ) Then roll in to 1" balls. Put on a cookie sheet the in the freezer. Heat the almond bark on low-med heat. I add some shortening to thin it out some then I drizzle it over the oreo balls. Put in freezer or frigde for an hour or til ready to eat.

Any other recipes?

Totally not how I do it

Here's my recipe:

Ingredients
1 pkg. (1 lb., 2 oz.) OREO Chocolate Sandwich Cookies, divided
1 pkg. (8 oz.) Cream Cheese, softened
2 pkg. (8 oz. each) Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate, melted

Directions
1) CRUSH 9 of the cookies to fine crumbs in food processor; reserve for later use. (Cookies can also be finely crushed in a resealable plastic bag using a rolling pin.)
2) Crush remaining 36 cookies to fine crumbs; place in medium bowl.
3) Add cream cheese; mix until well blended.
4) Roll cookie mixture into 42 balls, about 1-inch in diameter.
5) Melt the chocolate and cool it in the fridge until the pot is cool to the touch. DIP balls in chocolate; place on wax paper-covered baking sheet.
6) Sprinkle with reserved cookie crumbs.
7) REFRIGERATE until firm, about 1 hour. Store leftover truffles, covered, in refrigerator.

I love them! I will not send them out! You must make the yourself. Then share with everyone!

My mouth is watering just thinking of them yumm!

Those sound amazing! Just curious--is there a reason why you can't use the low fat cream cheese? I have just never come across a recipe where it mattered.

I use the LF!

These are the messiest thing I have EVER made. Maybe putting them in the freezer before coating would help... I might try again. I refused to do it last year but DH loves them.

You don't dip the balls in the almond bark? The recipe I was given had you dipping/rolling/coat the balls in the bark covering them completely. That added to the mess factor.

Thanks Blair! I am going to try it with LF also. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't any problems with it not being creamy enough or anything.

t.bird · November 2008

they are pretty messy- even using the freezer method. i've made them enough where i have a system now- but the first time...good Lord. there was chocolate everywhere!

you can use LF CC but everyone knows the fatty stuff is better

also you can experiment with oreos- mint, peanut butter, the vanilla ones with white chocolate- the list going on & on.

also i use the double stuff oreos- so much better that way!

SupaSaucy · November 2008

tbird!! MINT OREOS!!! OMG I never even THOUGHT of that!!

Now I'm trying them again FOR SURE this year!! ::drools::

p.s. you can use cake mix & cream cheese icing & make red velvet truffles, lemon truffles, etc.

And I have a recipe for pumpkin truffles.

I have put them in the almond bark but like you said it's messy. Or I just spoon the chocolate/ almond bark over the tops. If I spoon it over I put them on a wire rack. That is why I just drizzle it. I'm lazy & I want to eat them.

Also I use reg. cream cheese, Since Fat makes everything so much better!
