Amaia’s Oreo Truffles
Submitted by Amaia McDonald
Hi, my name is Amaia McDonald!
And I chose this dessert recipe because it was easy and I like oreos. More importantly, when looking at the ingredient list I was curious about the addition of cream cheese and was worried that the cream cheese would overpower the oreos-even though I had halved the recipe for me and my mom-turns out oreos have the most powerful cream filling and chocolate cookie in the universe because I cannot taste any of the cream cheese in the final product.
Ingredients:
- Oreo Cookies(24 cookies)
- Cream Cheese(4oz)
- White Chocolate(Half a cup)
- Dark Chocolate(Half a cup)
- Sprinkles
- Medium Cookie Scoop
- 30 Minutes
Instructions:
- Take 25 oreo cookies and crush them in a food processor, you want it to be crumbly but, small crumbles
- Take your four onces of cream cheese and add it to the mix, pulsing until the mixture is pretty smooth
- Take the medium cookie scoop and scoop a chunk of the oreo mixture, using your hands to round it out. Once done, place in the fridge so they keep their shape and are easy to handle
- Melt your chocolate! This can be done by putting it in the microwave for 30 seconds and stirring until smooth. Sirring also prevents the chocolate from burning, melting chocolate chips is the easiest due to their small size
- Dip the truffles in the chocolate and decorate with sprinkles! You can either wait 30 minutes for the chocolate to firm up or set them back in the fridge before eating
