Ingredients
Scale
Truffle Base
- 36 Oreo Cookies (Swap for gluten-free Oreos if needed)
- 8 oz Cream Cheese, softened (use full-fat for richer taste)
Coating and Decoration
- 12 oz White Chocolate
- Sprinkles or Edible Eyes (Optional for decoration)
Instructions
- Prepare Oreo crumbs: Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs.
- Mix with cream cheese: In a mixing bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs with softened cream cheese and mix thoroughly until smooth and well-blended.
- Shape the truffles: Scoop out portions of the mixture and roll them into balls, shaping them into ghost-like figures.
- Chill the truffles: Arrange the shaped truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill them in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to firm up.
- Melt the chocolate: Melt the white chocolate by heating in short bursts of 20-30 seconds in the microwave, stirring between each interval until smooth and fully melted.
- Coat the truffles: Dip each chilled ghost truffle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it is fully covered, then let excess chocolate drip off.
- Decorate: Before the chocolate coating sets, add sprinkles or edible eyes to create the ghostly features.
- Set the coating: Let the coated truffles sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes until the white chocolate hardens completely.
Notes
- Use gluten-free Oreos to make this recipe gluten-free.
- For a richer flavor, use full-fat cream cheese.
- Milk or dark chocolate can be substituted for white chocolate for different taste variations.
- Chilling the truffles before dipping helps keep their shape and makes coating easier.
- Store finished truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
