Ingredients:
- standard package (400g) Chocolate Sandwich Cookies (Oreos), whole
- oz (226g) Full-Fat Cream Cheese, softened
- oz (340g) High-Quality Chocolate (Semi-sweet, milk, or mix), chopped or chips
- Tablespoon Coconut Oil or Vegetable Shortening (optional)
Instructions:
- Place all whole chocolate sandwich cookies into a food processor and pulse until very fine, uniform crumbs are achieved.
- Transfer the cookie crumbs to a large mixing bowl. Add the softened cream cheese.
- Using a sturdy spoon or clean hands, mix the cream cheese and crumbs thoroughly until a uniform, stiff dough forms, ensuring no white streaks of cream cheese remain.
- Cover the dough mixture and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Remove dough from the fridge. Use a small scoop or spoon to portion the mixture, rolling each portion tightly between your palms into a 1-inch ball. Place rolled balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Place the tray of balls into the freezer for 10–15 minutes to freeze briefly.
- While balls are firming, melt the chopped chocolate (and optional coconut oil) in a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth and glossy.
- Working quickly, dip each frozen ball into the melted chocolate using a fork or toothpick. Tap gently on the side of the bowl to remove excess coating.
- Return the coated truffles to the parchment-lined sheet. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes until the chocolate shell is completely set.
