When I first made these Oreo Truffles, I couldn’t believe something so simple could taste this indulgent. The creamy, chocolatey filling wrapped in a velvety shell has become my go-to dessert for parties and cozy nights alike. Each bite feels like a little luxury, but the best part is how quick and easy they are to make.

I’ve always loved Oreos, but this recipe transforms them into something truly special. The combination of crushed cookies and cream cheese creates an irresistible smoothness, while the chocolate coating adds the perfect snap. Every time I serve them, people are amazed they’re homemade.

Making Oreo Truffles has also become a fun little ritual for me, and I often find myself sneaking a few even before the chocolate has fully set. They’ve earned a permanent place in my dessert repertoire, right next to favorites like these ooey gooey bars and delicious lemon cake.

These truffles are everything you want in a no-bake dessert: easy, quick, and full of flavor. With just a few ingredients, you can whip up a batch that looks and tastes like it came from a fancy bakery. Perfect for holidays, gifts, or just treating yourself, Oreo Truffles are proof that simplicity and elegance can go hand in hand.

Ingredients

Oreo cookies: These are the star of the recipe, bringing that signature chocolate cookie and cream flavor everyone loves.

Cream cheese: This binds the crushed cookies together, giving the truffles their creamy, smooth texture and a tangy undertone.

Chocolate: Either white or semi-sweet chocolate is melted to coat the truffles, adding a luscious shell that contrasts beautifully with the soft interior.

How to Make Oreo Truffles

Step 1: Crush the Cookies

Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse them into fine crumbs. You want them as even as possible for a smooth filling.

Step 2: Mix with Cream Cheese

In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed cookies with softened cream cheese. Mix until completely blended into a dough-like consistency.

Step 3: Shape the Truffles

Scoop small portions of the mixture and roll into balls about an inch wide. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 4: Chill

Refrigerate the truffle balls for at least 30 minutes. This helps them firm up and makes them easier to coat in chocolate.

Step 5: Coat with Chocolate

Melt your choice of chocolate and dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate. Place them back on the baking sheet and let the chocolate set.

Step 6: Enjoy

Once the coating has hardened, your Oreo Truffles are ready to be served and savored!

Recipe Variations and Possible Substitutions

If you want to change things up, you can use Golden Oreos for a vanilla twist or mint-flavored Oreos for a refreshing touch. Swap white chocolate for dark or even drizzle with caramel for extra decadence. Dairy-free cream cheese and vegan chocolate work beautifully if you’re looking for a plant-based version.

Serving and Pairing Suggestions

Oreo Truffles are perfect served on a dessert platter at parties, alongside a steaming cup of coffee or hot cocoa. They also make delightful homemade gifts, wrapped up in little boxes or bags for a thoughtful touch.

Keep your Oreo Truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. If you’d like to make them ahead, they also freeze well for up to three months. Simply thaw in the fridge before serving. No reheating is necessary — they’re perfect chilled!
