Ingredients
  

For the Truffles
  • 1 package Mint Oreos (14.3 oz)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened can use vegan cream cheese for a dairy-free option
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or dark chocolate for deeper flavor
  • 1 teaspoon peppermint extract optional, but adds an extra minty kick!
  • Sprinkles or crushed Oreos for decoration optional

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pulse the Mint Oreos in a food processor until they turn into fine crumbs.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the Oreo crumbs with softened cream cheese and blend until smooth.
  3. Scoop about a tablespoon-sized amount of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Refrigerate the truffles for about 30 minutes to firm them up.
Dipping
  1. Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
  2. Dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate using a fork for even coating. Let excess chocolate drip off.
  3. Sprinkle with decorative sprinkles or crushed Oreos before the chocolate sets.
  4. Return the truffles to the fridge until the chocolate hardens, approximately 15 minutes.
