oreo cream cheese – Lauren's Lovely Recipes

Hi foodies!

This past weekend, I went up to Big Bear for my friend Jessica’s birthday, and we had the best time. It was gorgeous the whole weekend! We stayed at this gorgeous house that her family friends own in the area, and so we all brought a ton of food and snacks for the weekend. My contribution? Oreo cream cheese truffles.

I had actually been inspired to make these because my grandmother’s neighbor had made them once. I made this recipe once before for a party, and was requested to make it again because they came out SO DARN GOOD.

WARNING: this is not, I repeat, NOT a healthy recipe.

Try these out the next time you need to bring something yummy to a party or want a delicious snack for a road trip 🙂 They are by far one of the easiest desserts to make, and they have been a huge hit every time I’ve made them!

Ingredients:
-1 package of Oreos (any flavor, I’ve done both chocolate and classic)
-1 8oz package of cream cheese
-1 bag of milk or dark chocolate chips, melted

Directions:
-begin by crumbling the Oreos into a large bowl
-put the entire package of cream cheese into the bowl and mix thoroughly with the crumbled Oreos (I mixed it with my hands)

-place that bowl into the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes so the mixture solidifies a little
-melt the entire package of chocolate chips in a separate bowl
-line a cookie sheet with parchment paper
-scoop out a small amount of the Oreo cream cheese mixture and roll it into a ball with your hands
-dip the ball into the melted chocolate so it is completed coated, and then place it on the parchment paper (you can also drizzle the chocolate over the top of the truffle once it’s already on the parchment paper)
