Ingredients
Scale
- 24 Oreos, crushed into fine crumbs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1–2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 2 cups dark chocolate chips, melted
- Sprinkles or crushed Oreos for decoration (optional)
Instructions
- Place the Oreos in a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs. Alternatively, crush them manually using a zip-top bag and rolling pin.
- In a mixing bowl, beat softened butter with powdered sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer. Add vanilla extract and heavy cream, blending until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually mix the crushed Oreos into the buttercream until well incorporated. The mixture should hold together when pressed but still feel soft.
- Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to firm up.
- Place dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each until completely melted and smooth.
- Using a fork or dipping tool, coat each Oreo ball in melted chocolate. Tap off excess chocolate and place the coated truffle back on the parchment paper.
- While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle crushed Oreos or colorful sprinkles on top for decoration.
- Chill the truffles in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or until the chocolate is firm. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
