Ingredients:
- 1 (14.3 oz / 405g) package Halloween Oreos
- 4 oz (113g) cream cheese, softened
- 12 oz (340g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- Orange candy melts (optional)
- Halloween-themed sprinkles (optional)
- Edible food coloring pens (black, green) (optional)
- White chocolate for drizzle (optional)
Instructions:
- Crush the Oreos: Using a food processor, grind the entire package of Halloween Oreos (including the cream filling) into fine crumbs. Alternatively, place Oreos in a large zip-top bag, seal, and crush with a rolling pin.
- Combine with Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs and softened cream cheese. Mix well until a smooth, dough-like mixture forms.
- Chill the Mixture: Roll the mixture into approximately 24 evenly sized balls. Place the Oreo balls on the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips with the coconut oil until smooth. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
- Dip the Truffles: Remove the chilled Oreo balls from the refrigerator. One at a time, dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Use a fork or dipping tools to remove the truffle and tap off any excess chocolate.
- Decorate (Optional): Immediately decorate the dipped truffles with orange candy melts, Halloween sprinkles, and edible food coloring pens to create spooky designs. Alternatively, drizzle with melted white chocolate.
- Set the Chocolate: Return the decorated truffles to the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
