Ingredients
Scale
Truffles
- 26 Golden Oreos
- 0.8 ounce bag freeze-dried strawberries
- 5 ounces cream cheese, softened
Coating
- 1 1/4 cups white candy melts
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Prepare the crumb base: Add the Oreos and freeze-dried strawberries into a food processor and pulse until a fine crumb forms.
- Reserve crumb for garnish: Scoop out about 2 tablespoons of this crumb mixture and set it aside for sprinkling later.
- Form the truffle mixture: Add the softened cream cheese into the food processor and pulse until a uniform ball of dough forms.
- Scoop truffles: Using a 1 1/2 tablespoon cookie scoop or your preferred size, scoop the mixture onto a piece of parchment paper.
- Shape truffles: Roll each scoop between your hands to form smooth balls.
- Melt the coating: In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the white candy melts and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.
- Coat truffles: Dip each truffle into the melted candy coating, then tap off any excess by gently tapping the fork on the side of the bowl.
- Place on parchment: Use a skewer to push each coated truffle back onto the parchment paper.
- Add the garnish: Quickly sprinkle the reserved Oreo-strawberry crumb over each truffle before the coating sets.
- Chill and set: Store the truffles in the refrigerator to allow the coating to harden and the flavors to meld.
Notes
- Ensure cream cheese is softened to blend easily with the crumbs.
- Freeze-dried strawberries provide intense strawberry flavor without adding moisture.
- If candy melts are not available, white chocolate chips can be used but may require tempering.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the fridge; consume within 5 days for best taste.
- Optionally, roll truffles in extra crushed Oreos or sprinkles instead of the reserved crumb for variation.
