Ingredients

  • 36 Oreo cookies (regular or reduced-fat)
  • 8 oz light cream cheese, softened
  • 8 oz dark or semi-sweet chocolate, chopped or chips

Instructions

1. Crush the Cookies
Place Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed. Alternatively, put cookies in a sealed plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin.

2. Mix with Cream Cheese
In a large bowl, combine the crushed cookies and softened cream cheese. Mix until well blended and forms a dough-like consistency.

3. Form the Truffles
Using a teaspoon or cookie scoop, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

4. Chill
Refrigerate the balls for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

5. Dip in Chocolate
Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off, then place back on the parchment-lined sheet.

6. Set & Serve
Refrigerate until the chocolate coating hardens, about 30 minutes. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
