Oreo Truffles

Even though these are incredibly easy to make, I only do so at the holidays because they are so addictive! Only 4 ingredients and everyone loves them! What could be better?

Oreo Truffles

8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 pkg. Oreo cookies, crushed
2 c. semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
1 T. Crisco

Mix cream cheese with electric mixer until fluffy. Add the crushed Oreos and beat on high until well mixed. Chill for at least 2 hours in the freezer. Then roll into one inch balls.


Next, melt the chocolate chips and shortening with a double boiler or in the microwave. Dip the Oreo balls completely into the melted chocolate using a toothpick.

Put on waxed paper. After the Oreo balls harden, keep them in the refrigerator.

Makes about 3 or 4 dozen Oreo Truffles, depending on the size
