Creating Oreo Truffles is simple and requires just a few steps. Follow these instructions to make your own delicious truffles:

1. Crush the Oreos: Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they are fine crumbs. If you don’t have a food processor, you can place them in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin.

2. Mix with Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos with softened cream cheese. Mix until well blended and smooth.

3. Form the Balls: Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, form the Oreo mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

4. Chill the Truffles: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, allowing the truffles to firm up.

5. Melt the Chocolate: While the truffles chill, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until completely melted and smooth.

6. Coat the Truffles: Remove the chilled truffles from the refrigerator. Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, using a fork to lift and let excess chocolate drip off. Place the coated truffles back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.

7. Add Toppings: If desired, sprinkle crushed Oreos, sprinkles, or cocoa powder on top of the chocolate-coated truffles before the chocolate sets.

8. Chill Again: Once all truffles are coated, place the baking sheet back in the refrigerator for another 15-30 minutes to let the chocolate harden.

9. Serve: Once the chocolate has set, your Oreo Truffles are ready to be enjoyed!
