Easy Oreo Truffles are absolutely heavenly, while also ridiculously easy to make. They are the perfect dessert to bring to a party, or simply keep in your freezer to snack on any time you want! You’re going to love them!
This recipe combines two of our favorite desserts: Oreos and truffles. The combination is heavenly. Truffles seem just so fancy, we never really considered making them from scratch. When we discovered just how quick and easy they were to make, we got busy in the kitchen and haven’t turned back since. We must warn you, they are addictingly good. While this recipe makes 30 truffles, and that might seem like a lot, it is simply not enough. It is certainly not enough to share! We like to keep batches of this in the freezer so we can sneak one at any given time. While they are certainly a holiday favorite treat, these are too good to reserve for the holidays alone. Whether it is the middle of winter or 100 degrees in the summer, once you taste them the cravings won’t stop!
Cream Cheese Substitute in Easy Oreo Truffles:
If you don’t want to use cream cheese, you can always substitute with 1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk.
Chocolate Dipping Tip:
Dipping the balls into melted chocolate can get super messy. To save your fingers, use a fork or a toothpick carefully inserted into the Oreo ball to dip them.
Melting Options:
There are a few different ways you can melt your chocolate. We love how quick and easy it is to melt in the microwave, but you can also use a double boiler method or a small crock pot to melt.
Flavor Variations:
This recipe is really fun to make with all of the many different Oreo flavors! Get creative and try them all!
Unfortunately, we cannot recommend the Double or Mega Stuf Oreos. The consistency will change too much and will not work in this recipe.
Decorating:
Decorating these truffles is our absolute favorite! Keep it easy with sprinkles, or even drizzle some melted white chocolate over the top.
Freezer Instructions:
Oreo truffles freeze beautifully. Store your chilled and hardened truffles in a freezer-safe ziploc bag for up to 2 months.
Storage Instructions:
Make sure to store your Oreo truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator, and keep them refrigerated until ready to serve. Left at room temperature too long, they will start to crack and soften too much. They will last in the fridge for up to 1 week.

I’ve made these for years. Everyone loves them. I dip them in white “chocolate “, tinted for all occasions – weddings, baby showers, sports teams (blue and white, go Penn State), holidays, etc. I use a toothpick for dipping, and then decorate with an other color.
WE ARE!!! Love the way you think. Penn State Forever!!
