Peppermint Oreo Truffles
Truffles are the chocolate lovers heaven! They are rich, soft, creamy and just melt in your mouth. This is a great dessert to make with kids and the fact that they are no-bake means that they are also quick and easy!
Another thing I love about this truffle recipe is that you can make them in advance and keep them in the fridge for up to five days before you need them.
This comes in handy when you are running around with all of the holiday craziness and you find a few minutes to make them! Then they are ready to go when you need them!
Ingredients
- Oreo Cookies
- Softened cream cheese
- Peppermint extract
- White melting chocolate
- Crushed candy canes
How to make Peppermint Oreo Truffles
The best part of making truffles is that they are so easy! They are no bake and are pretty hard to mess up!
- Prepare a baking sheet by covering it with either parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Crush up the Oreos. You can do this by placing them in a plastic bag and crushing them with a mallet. But it is much easier if you have a food processor or blender. Just throw the cookies in there and pulse until finely ground up.
- Next, add in the cream cheese and peppermint extract and continue to pulse until they are combined and smooth.
- Once the mixture is complete, take small cookie scoop (or a spoon if you don’t have a cookie scoop) and scoop the dough into approximately 1-inch balls. Roll it up firmly in your hands and place on the prepared cookie sheet.
- Place in the freezer for at least 1 hour.
- Follow the instructions on the candy melt packaging (melt either using a double broiler or in the microwave). Pour melted chocolate into a small bowl.
- Dip the Oreo Cookie truffles into the bowl of melted white chocolate and let the excess chocolate drip off. Then top with crushed candy canes.
- Let the chocolate firm up before serving.
Tools I Love
Following are some tools that I find super helpful when making truffles (affiliate links):
- Small Cookie Scoop (you will wonder how you ever lived without this!)
- Silpat or Silicone Baking Mat (better than wax paper or parchment paper!)
- Wilton Dipping Scoop (this makes dipping into chocolate SO much easier)
