Ingredients

Servings
  • 16 ounce Oreo cookies crushed, package
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 12 ounces white chocolate chips or almond bark
  • 1 cup Peppermint candy crushed

Instructions

  1. Crush the Oreos in a food processor or put them in a ziploc bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
  2. Stir together the crushed Oreos, cream cheese, and peppermint extract.
  3. Form the mixture into balls using a cookie scoop. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Place the balls in the refrigerator to chill for at least one hour.
  5. Put the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is smooth.
  6. Dip each Oreo ball in the melted chocolate and transfer to a piece of parchment paper. Top each ball with a few pieces of crushed peppermint candy.
  7. Allow the chocolate to cool and harden before serving.

Notes

  • While a ziplock bag and rolling pin can do the job, using a food processor will give you a finer, more consistent crumb, resulting in a smoother truffle texture.
  • Fully soften your cream cheese before you start mixing. If it's too cold, you'll end up with lumps.
  • Chill the Oreo balls before coating them in chocolate. This step will save you a lot of sticky fingers and frustration.
  • Use a cookie scoop to get truffles that are all the same size. It not only looks better but also helps them chill and set uniformly. If you don't have a cookie scoop, a tablespoon will work, too—just try to keep them consistent.
  • After dipping the truffles in melted chocolate, sprinkle the crushed peppermint candy immediately. The chocolate sets quickly, and you want the candy to stick.
