Mint Oreo Truffles are a delightful no-bake dessert combining the refreshing flavor of mint-infused Oreo cookies with creamy cream cheese, all coated in a luscious layer of white or dark chocolate.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 package Mint Oreo cookies (approximately 36 cookies)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 12 oz white or dark chocolate, melted (for coating)
  • Green food coloring (optional, for white chocolate)
  • Sprinkles, crushed Oreos, or chocolate drizzle for decoration

Instructions

  1. Crush the Oreos: Use a food processor or place the Mint Oreo cookies in a sealed plastic bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin, ensuring there are no large chunks left.
  2. Mix with Cream Cheese: In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreo crumbs with softened cream cheese. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is uniform and smooth in texture, with no visible cream cheese lumps.
  3. Shape the Truffles: Roll the combined Oreo and cream cheese mixture into small balls about 1 inch in diameter. Place each ball on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  4. Chill: Refrigerate the shaped truffle balls for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Alternatively, you can freeze them for 15 minutes if you’re short on time.
  5. Melt the Chocolate: Melt your choice of white or dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl using 30-second intervals. Stir well between each interval until the chocolate is completely smooth. If using white chocolate, you may add green food coloring for a festive look.
  6. Coat the Truffles: Dip each chilled truffle ball into the melted chocolate, making sure to cover it evenly. Use a fork to lift the truffle out and allow excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
  7. Decorate: Before the chocolate coating hardens, embellish your truffles with sprinkles, crushed Oreo bits, or drizzle with additional chocolate for an attractive finish.
  8. Chill Again: Place the decorated truffles back in the refrigerator until the chocolate coating has fully set and hardened, about 15-20 minutes.
  9. Serve and Enjoy: Once firm, your Mint Oreo Truffles are ready to be served. Enjoy these creamy, minty treats as a perfect sweet snack or party dessert.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing.
  • Use a parchment-lined baking sheet to prevent sticking while shaping and chilling.
  • If you prefer a darker chocolate flavor, opt for dark chocolate for the coating instead of white chocolate.
  • Truffles can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • For an extra festive look, use holiday-themed sprinkles or edible glitter.
