Made with just cream cheese and vanilla, theseย Oreo Trufflesย are about as no-fuss as a dessert can be.
How to make the best Oreo truffles:ย
These Oreo Truffles are about as no-fuss as a dessert can be! What’s the point of adding coconut oil, you may ask? Mixing the oil with the chocolate gives that shiny luster to the chocolate coating.
Oreo truffle variations:
โย Get boozy.ย Everyone loves aย boozy dessert! Try adding a splash (we’d suggest 1-2 tablespoons) of Baileys, Kahlua, or Rumchata to the cream cheese mix. Top the truffles with chopped chocolate-covered espresso beans or a sprinkle of cinnamon-sugar for added effect.
โย Raid the candy aisle.ย A bit of crushed candy can add a boost of flavor and color to your truffles. Chopped Reese’s Pieces, crushed candy canes (like our favoriteย peppermint Oreo truffles), or some chopped Butterfingers.
โย Go nuts.ย Peanut butter (like in ourย peanut butter snowballs) or Nutella would make for some EXTRA delicious truffles.
โย Add a chocolate drizzle.ย Want these treats to be extra chocolatey? Melt 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips in the microwave and use a spoon to drizzle over your hardened truffles. Place them back in the freezer to hardenโ10 to 15 minutesโbefore serving, and you’re ready to dig in! ย
Storage:
If you have leftovers or are making these ahead of your party, store the prepared bite-sized treats in an airtight container in the fridge for a party-ready dessert ready days in advance.
