Ingredients
  

Patriotic Oreo truffle base
  • 36 Oreo cookies Use plain Oreo cookies; crush until fine crumbs with no large pieces remaining.
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened Soften at room temperature until pliable for easy mixing.
Coatings and decorations
  • 16 oz white chocolate melting wafers Melt until smooth, following package instructions.
  • 1 Red candy melts Melt separately for thin drizzle lines.
  • 1 Blue candy melts Melt separately for thin drizzle lines.
  • 1 Red, white, and blue star sprinkles Top immediately after drizzling so they adhere.

Equipment

  • 1 food processor
  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Make the Oreo truffle dough
  1. Crush Oreo cookies in a food processor until they become fine crumbs with no large pieces remaining.
  2. Mix Oreo crumbs with softened cream cheese until fully combined into a thick uniform dough.
  3. Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined sheet pan, then freeze for 30 minutes.
Melt and dip
  1. Melt white chocolate melting wafers according to package instructions until smooth.
  2. Dip each chilled Oreo ball into white chocolate using a fork, let excess drip off, and return to the parchment sheet.
Decorate with red and blue drizzle
  1. Melt red and blue candy melts separately until fluid, then drizzle over the coated balls in thin lines.
  2. Immediately top each ball with red, white, and blue star sprinkles so the sprinkles stick before the chocolate sets.
Chill to set
  1. Refrigerate for 30 minutes until fully set before serving, then arrange in patriotic rows.

Notes

For the roundest truffles, keep the dough cold while you roll, and freeze the shaped balls before dipping so the coating doesn’t crack. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days; freeze yes—freeze in a single layer, then transfer to a container for up to 2 months. For a dairy-reduced option, use a cream cheese alternative that measures like regular cream cheese and follow the same chilling times.
