Ingredients

20 Golden Oreo Cookies (double stuf preferred, regular works too)
8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups white chocolate melting wafers
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1/2 cup assorted sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

Prepare your workspace: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat and set it aside.
Crush the cookies: Use a food processor to pulse the Oreos until they resemble coarse sand. If you don’t have a processor, place the cookies in a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
Mix the batter: Add the softened cream cheese and vanilla extract to the crushed cookies. Blend or pulse until the mixture forms a thick, combined batter.
Shape the truffles: Scoop the batter into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to firm up.
Melt the coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate melting wafers and coconut oil. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Smooth the truffles: Remove the chilled truffles from the refrigerator and roll each one in your hands to smooth out any cracks.
Dip the truffles: One at a time, dip each truffle into the melted white chocolate, tapping off any excess coating.
Decorate and set: Place the dipped truffles back on the parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired, sprinkle them with assorted sprinkles before the coating sets.
Repeat: Continue dipping and decorating until all truffles are coated.
Enjoy: Let the truffles fully set before serving and enjoy your sweet creation!

Tips & Variations

For a fun twist, try dipping the truffles in dark or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate.
If you don’t have coconut oil, you can substitute with vegetable oil or shortening to help the chocolate melt smoothly.
Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for a subtle spice flavor.
Use colored sprinkles or themed decorations to match holidays or special occasions.

Storage

Store the sugar cookie truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. This keeps them firm and fresh. When ready to enjoy, you can serve them chilled or let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly. Avoid leaving them out for long periods to prevent the coating from melting.

FAQs

Can I use regular Oreos instead of Golden Oreos?

Yes, regular Oreos will work perfectly fine and will give the truffles a classic chocolate flavor instead of the vanilla flavor from Golden Oreos.

Do I need to chill the truffles before dipping?
