Cookies-and-Cream Truffles image

Cream cheese and chocolate are a perfect combo for melt-in-your-mouth truffles. Adding a little shortening to thechocolate as it melts makes the chocolate more fluid and easier to use for coating. It also makes the chocolate a little shinier once it has set. Transfer truffles to individual paper cups or mini muffin liners inside an airtight container and store in refrigerator up to 2 weeks.

Time 1h25m

Yield 42

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (14 ounce) package chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreo®)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cubed and softened
1 pound semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 tablespoon shortening

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
  • Pulse chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor until they are fine crumbs. Set aside 1/2 cup crumbs in a small bowl. Add cream cheese to remaining crumbs in the food processor; pulse until well combined.
  • Shape cream cheese mixture into walnut-size balls using dampened hands.
  • Melt chocolate and shortening in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each melting, about 1 to 3 minutes.
  • Dip balls in the chocolate mixture, turning with a fork to completely coat. Lift the truffles out of the chocolate mixture using 2 forks, letting excess chocolate drip into the bowl. Transfer truffles to the prepared baking sheet. Immediately sprinkle reserved cookie crumbs over truffles.
  • Chill truffles in refrigerator until firm, about 1 hour.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my truffles turned out a complete mess. I'll definitely be trying a different recipe next time.

These truffles were a disappointment. They were too sweet and they didn't have much flavor.

The truffles were a bit too crumbly. I think I'll try using a different type of cookie next time.

The truffles were a bit too soft for my liking. I think I'll try chilling them for longer next time.

These truffles were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using dark chocolate next time.

I'm not a big fan of white chocolate, but these truffles were still delicious. The cookie pieces added a nice crunch.
