Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 54 Oreo cookies, ground (cream filling and all) into a fine crumb
  • 12 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • 16 ounces white chocolate or almond bark
  • Red and pink food coloring (optional)
  • Sprinkles, for garnish


Instructions

  1. Prepare Oreo Mixture: In a large bowl, combine Oreo crumbs and room temperature cream cheese. Mix thoroughly until the mixture forms a uniform paste-like dough.
  2. Shape the Dough: Transfer the Oreo mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Press evenly into a 1-inch thick layer to create a solid base.
  3. Chill the Dough: Place the baking sheet with the dough in the freezer for 20 to 25 minutes until firm enough to cut.
  4. Cut Out Heart Shapes: Once chilled, use a small heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut the dough into heart shapes. Carefully transfer the cut-out truffles to a parchment-lined plate.
  5. Melt White Chocolate: Melt white chocolate or almond bark in the microwave using 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely smooth and melted. If desired, divide the chocolate and tint portions with red and pink food coloring.
  6. Coat the Truffles: Dip each heart-shaped truffle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring an even and full coating. Let excess chocolate drip off before placing them back on parchment paper.
  7. Decorate: Sprinkle colored sprinkles over the coated truffles while the coating is still wet. For added decorative stripes, allow the coating to harden completely, then drizzle with a contrasting colored chocolate.
  8. Set and Serve: Allow the truffles to fully harden at room temperature or refrigerate briefly before serving. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easier mixing.
  • Freezing the dough layer helps maintain the shapes when cutting heart cookies.
  • Use almond bark for a smoother coating that sets well at room temperature.
  • Red and pink food coloring are optional but add a festive touch.
  • Store truffles in a cool place or refrigerate to prevent melting.
  • Allergens include milk due to Oreos and cream cheese.
