Ingredients For No Bake Oreo Balls

• 36 Oreos 14.3 ounce package, or other chocolate sandwich cookies
• 8 ounces cream cheese softened
• 11-12 ounces white chocolate or white candy melts, 1 1/2 cups, you can use chocolate chips or almond bark
• 11-12 ounces dark chocolate or chocolate candy melts, 1 1/2 cups, you can use chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil optional, see notes in the recipe card at the bottom of the page

How To Make No Bake Oreo Balls

1. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Place cookies in food processor and mix until cookies turn into fine crumbs. See notes if you don’t have a food processor.

3. Add cream cheese to the cookie crumbs.  Mix with a silicone spatula until a dough forms. Do not mix the mixture in the food processor as the cream cheese mixture can become too liquidy.
4. Roll the dough into balls, about one tablespoon per truffle. I like to use this cookie scoop set to make them the easy way. For this recipe, you’ll need the small cookie scoop in the set. Place each truffle on the parchment paper-lined baking sheet so they are not touching. Freeze the truffles for at least 15 minutes.

5. Add the white chocolate and one tablespoon of coconut oil (optional) to a heatproof bowl. Place the bowl in the microwave and heat for a minute at half power, then stir. Continue heating the white chocolate in thirty second increments until it forms a smooth white chocolate sauce.
6. Remove half of the truffles from the freezer. Place half of the truffle balls into the white chocolate one at a time to coat, using a fork so excess melted chocolate can drip off. Place each white chocolate-coated ball on parchment paper so they are not touching each other.

7. Add the dark chocolate and one tablespoon of coconut oil (optional) to a heatproof bowl. Place the bowl in the microwave and heat for a minute at half power, then stir. Continue heating the dark chocolate in thirty-second increments until it forms a smooth dark chocolate sauce.
8. Remove the other half of the truffles from the freezer. Place half of the truffle balls into the dark chocolate one at a time to coat, using a fork so excess melted chocolate can drip off. Place each dark chocolate-coated ball on parchment paper so they are not touching each other.
9. Drizzle the top of each truffle with the remaining chocolate to decorate (see notes). Extra crushed Oreo cookies can be also sprinkled on top to decorate if desired before the chocolate hardens. Place the pan in the freezer for 15 minutes to help the chocolate to fully harden, then enjoy!

Variation Ideas

• Swap the flavors of Oreos– There are so many different flavors of Oreos now! From S’mores to peanut butter, birthday cake, and more. Try experimenting with different flavors in this recipe.
• Use Different colored Candy Melts– Candy melts are a type of chocolate that has already been colored. It makes adding your own custom colors to treats really easy, as coloring chocolate is not always the easiest process. You can add your own colors for any holiday or event to these easy treats or even decorate them easily to look like monster truffles, bat oreo balls, Grinch oreo balls, or cute melting snowmen oreo balls!
• Use Different Types Of Chocolate Coating– You can use other types of chocolate too for the coating on these treats. Chocolate chips, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, or almond bark all work well!
• Add Sprinkles – Add fun sprinkles or other small candies to the top of the Oreo Balls while the chocolate is still melted for a pop of color.
• Stuff Them With Candy – If you portion the Oreo balls a little larger, you can stuff them like I did with these peanut butter cup stuffed truffles which have a mini Reeses cup surprise inside.

Do Oreo Ball Truffles Need To Be Refrigerated?

Yes, these truffles do need to be refrigerated because of the cream cheese in the center. These treats will easily last a week in the refrigerator. Store truffles in an airtight container with layers of freezer paper, wax paper, or parchment between the chocolates.

Can Oreo Balls Be Frozen?

Yes you can freeze this no bake dessert. Freeze between layers of freezer paper in a freezer-safe zip-top bag. I like to freeze desserts on a cookie sheet first so they don’t stick together, and then place them in a bag.

Oreo truffles can be stored in the freezer for up to a month for the best freshness.

To eat the chocolates, let them defrost on the counter or overnight in the refrigerator before serving. These truffles defrost pretty quickly, but sometimes we enjoy them straight from the freezer.
