How to Make Oreo Truffles

See recipe card below this post for ingredient quantities and full instructions.

Pulse Oreos in a food processor to form fine crumbs. (You can also do this by hand.) Combine with softened cream cheese.

A glass bowl with crushed Oreos and cream cheese before and after mixing.

Roll into 1-inch balls and freezer for 30 minutes or more, then dip into melted chocolate.

Transfer to the refrigerator to set for about 10 minutes. Melt more chocolate if desired and use a fork to drizzle it over the truffles. Refrigerate for 10 minutes or until ready to serve.

Make-Ahead Method

  • Oreo Truffles are a great make-ahead treat and can.be made up to 5 days of time and can be stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve!
  • To make them longer than 5 days ahead, freeze them and let them thaw in the refrigerator prior to serving.

Pro Tips For This Recipe

  • Don’t allow any moisture to come in contact with the melted chocolate, this will cause it to seize when it’s melted. This includes using wet utensils to stir, etc.
  • Don’t melt the chocolate too quickly, low and slow is best. Follow package instructions.
  • Use melting chocolate or Baker’s bars as opposed to chocolate chips to ensure a smoother consistency.
  • To color the chocolate: Add 4 drops of oil-based  food coloring to melted white chocolate and stir until uniform in color. (Oil based food coloring is needed to ensure that the chocolate doesn’t seize.) 
  • You can also decorate the tops with sprinkles or crushed cookies right after they’ve been dipped.

Storage

  • These can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or you can freeze them for up to 3 months.

  1. Is it necessary to freeze the balls of the Oreo mixture? I’m considering making these for a competition and I only have thirty minutes to cook… Thanks so much!

    • Hi Liv, yes, I do recommend freezing them for them to come out correctly.

      • Hi friend!! I was wondering how many Oreos you use? I have a party size package which is 1lb. Looking forward to hearing back from you!!!

      • Hey Gretchen! If you have a party size I would just take out like 6 Oreos and then use the rest of the package! 🙂

    • Thank you so much!!! I have the double stuff Oreo’s I’ve read that you’re only supposed to use 1/2 a block of cream cheese. Is that correct? I’ve made them twice now, & can’t remember? They were a hit!! I brought one batch in to work, & another for father’s day!!!! Thank you so much look forward to hearing back from you!!!

      • Hi Gretchen! I’ve used double stuff many times (I think every time actually), and I don’t halve the amount of cream cheese. You can always start by using less and add more if preferred but I think you’re good to go as-is!

  2. I’m wondering how many truffles = one serving? Thanks 🙂 delicious!
