Mint Oreo Truffles

Mint Oreo Truffles are my go-to dessert. It’s also a go-to dessert for all my friends, meaning when I bring these over they go straight for the container and don’t back away until every single truffle has been consumed. Although it looks complicated, it is a relatively easy recipe that requires only 3 ingredients. I’ve made these many times and have tried using regular Oreos, milk chocolate and white chocolate but found the combination of mint Oreos and semi-sweet chocolate to be the best!

Mint Oreo Truffles
1 package of Mint Creme Oreos
1 package of creme cheese
2 cups of bittersweet chocolate chips
  1. Grind the Oreos into a powder. Food processor works best for this step.
  2. Mix in the cream cheese. Mix well until you can’t see white anymore.
  3. Roll the “dough” into small balls, place on a paper lined cookie sheet and refrigerate or freeze for about an hour.
  4. Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave.
  5. Dip the balls into the chocolate and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
