Strawberry Shortcake Truffles
Description
These truffles start by pulsing golden Oreos and freeze-dried strawberries into fine crumbs. Cream cheese is added and combined until a firm dough forms, which is then portioned into bite-sized balls. After shaping, the truffles are dipped into melted white candy melts mixed with coconut oil for a smooth, shiny coating that sets firmly.
The truffles are finished by sprinkling some of the reserved crumb mixture on top before the coating hardens, adding a bit of texture and visual interest. Stored in the refrigerator, these truffles offer a sweet, creamy bite with subtle fruit flavor and a crisp cookie base. The recipe requires no baking and is suitable for making ahead.
