Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Truffle Mixture
  • 36 Mint Oreo Cookies Standard size, not Double Stuf
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese Full-fat, softened to room temperature
  • 0.25 tsp Peppermint Extract Optional
Coating & Decor
  • 12 oz Green Candy Melts
  • 8 oz Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 1 tbsp Coconut Oil Divided for melting

Method
 

  1. Pulse Mint Oreos in a food processor until they reach a fine crumb consistency.
  2. Beat the softened cream cheese and cookie crumbs together until a smooth dough forms.
  3. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Freeze the balls for at least 30 minutes to ensure they are firm enough for dipping.
  5. Melt the candy melts and chocolate. Dip each chilled ball using a fork, tapping off excess coating.
  6. Top with sprinkles immediately and refrigerate until the shells are set. Serve chilled.

Notes

Always use brick-style cream cheese rather than whipped for the best texture. If the mixture is too soft to roll, chill the bowl of 'dough' for 15 minutes before shaping.
