Let’s Make it together
Prepare Your Workspace: Gather all your ingredients and tools like mixing bowls and a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This will streamline your process.
Mash Those Oreos: In a large bowl, crush the Oreos into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin. The finer they are, the smoother your truffles will be.
Add Cream Cheese: Mix in softened cream cheese until fully combined. The mixture should feel moist but firm enough to hold its shape when formed into balls.
Form Truffles: Roll tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture into balls with your hands and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Chill them in the fridge for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Melt Your Chocolates: In separate microwave-safe bowls, melt white chocolate chips and dark chocolate chips in 30-second intervals until smooth. Stir often to prevent overheating.
Dunk and Decorate: Dip each chilled truffle into melted white chocolate using a fork. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing them back on parchment paper. Sprinkle red and blue sprinkles on top immediately for that festive flair.
Now that you’ve followed these steps, you’re just moments away from tasting pure bliss wrapped in chocolate!
