Ingredients
1 (14–17 oz) package Mint Oreos (about 36–40 cookies)
8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
12–16 oz white chocolate or candy coating (almond bark works great)
Optional: 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
Optional: green gel food coloring
Optional: sprinkles or crushed candy canes
Instructions
1. Crush the Mint Oreos in a food processor until fine crumbs form (creme and all).
2. Add softened cream cheese (and peppermint extract if using). Pulse until a sticky dough forms.
3. Scoop into 1-tablespoon portions onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and roll into smooth balls. Freeze 20–30 minutes until firm.
4. Melt white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between, until smooth. Tint with a drop of green coloring if desired. Dip or spoon coating over each chilled truffle and tap off excess.
5. Add sprinkles immediately before the coating sets. Refrigerate about 15 minutes to harden. Store in an airtight container.
Notes
Finely crushed cookies make the smoothest truffles—avoid big chunks.
Chilling/freeze time is key for easy dipping and a clean coating.
Use candy melts/almond bark for the easiest, smoothest coating.
Store refrigerated for best texture; let sit 5 minutes before serving for the creamiest bite.
