To make No Bake Cookies & Cream Truffle Balls, you need: - 1 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos) - 8 oz cream cheese, softened - 1 cup white chocolate chips - 1 tablespoon coconut oil - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract - Additional crushed cookies for coating If you need to adjust amounts, here are some handy conversions: - 1 cup = 8 ounces - 1 tablespoon = 3 teaspoons - 1/2 teaspoon = 2.5 milliliters For the best results, I recommend these brands: - Chocolate Sandwich Cookies: Oreo or generic brands work well. - Cream Cheese: Philadelphia cream cheese is a trusted choice. - White Chocolate Chips: Ghirardelli or Nestlé are great options. - Coconut Oil: Spectrum or Nutiva provide high-quality coconut oil. Using these ingredients will help you create a delicious and smooth truffle that everyone will love. First, gather your tools. You need a medium mixing bowl and a spatula. Take 1 cup of crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and add it to the bowl. Then, add 8 ounces of softened cream cheese. The cream cheese should be soft to mix well. Stir the mixture until it looks like dough. You want a smooth texture. If it feels too dry, add a bit more cream cheese. This dough should be easy to handle. Now, it’s time to shape the dough. Use your hands to roll the mixture into small balls. Aim for about 1 inch in diameter. This size makes them easy to pop in your mouth. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. You should end up with 15 to 20 truffle balls. Make sure to give them some space. This helps them cool evenly. Next, chill the truffle balls. Put the baking sheet in the fridge for about 30 minutes. This helps them firm up. While they chill, prepare the coating. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup of white chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Heat this in the microwave in 30-second blasts. Stir in between until it’s all melted and smooth. After chilling, take the truffle balls out of the fridge. Use a fork to dip each ball into the melted chocolate. Make sure each ball is fully coated. Let any extra chocolate drip off. Then, place them back on the baking sheet. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle crushed cookies over each ball for decoration. Finally, put the truffles back in the fridge for about 10 to 15 minutes. This sets the chocolate, and you’ll have tasty truffles ready to enjoy! To get that ideal texture, start with softened cream cheese. This helps mix well with the crushed cookies. Mix until you reach a dough-like consistency. If the mixture feels too dry, add a little more cream cheese. You want it to hold its shape but still feel soft. Rolling the dough into small balls helps them set nicely. When melting chocolate, use a microwave-safe bowl. Add your white chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in 30-second bursts. Stir after each burst to avoid burning. The chocolate should be smooth and glossy. If it feels too thick, a tiny bit more coconut oil can help. This keeps the chocolate from clumping when coating the truffles. For a fun presentation, use decorative plates. Arrange the truffle balls nicely. You can sprinkle extra crushed cookies on top for color. Mini cupcake liners add a nice touch. For an extra pop, add mint leaves around the truffles. This makes for a lovely display at any gathering! {{image_2}} You can mix things up with different cookie types. Try using peanut butter cookies for a nutty twist. Vanilla wafers give a lighter flavor. For a fun spin, use chocolate chip cookies. Each cookie type changes the taste and feel of your truffles. This way, you can have a new treat with every batch. Want a vegan version? Simply swap the cream cheese for a vegan alternative. Use dairy-free chocolate chips for the coating. Look for coconut cream or nut-based cream cheese. These changes keep the truffles creamy without dairy. It's easy to make them fit your diet. Add-ins enhance the taste and texture of your truffles. Consider mini chocolate chips for a richer bite. Chopped nuts add crunch and healthy fats. If you love coconut, try adding shredded coconut. You could also mix in some sea salt for a sweet and salty touch. These extras make your truffles unique and fun! To keep your truffle balls fresh, store them in an airtight container. Layer them with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Place the container in the fridge. They will stay fresh this way for up to one week. If you have a lot, consider dividing them into smaller containers. You can freeze your truffle balls if you want to save some for later. First, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Freeze for about an hour until firm. Once firm, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container. Be sure to remove any air. They can last for up to three months in the freezer. When you're ready to enjoy them, thaw in the fridge overnight. These truffle balls are best enjoyed within a week for optimal flavor. Check for any signs of spoilage, like off smells or changes in texture. If they look good, they should taste good! For the best experience, eat them cold right after they set. This way, the texture remains creamy and delicious. Yes, you can use many types of cookies. Try vanilla wafers or chocolate chip cookies. Each cookie brings a new taste. This lets you play with flavors. Just keep the cookie base similar in texture. It should still crush easily. To boost the chocolate flavor, add cocoa powder. Mix in a couple of tablespoons with your cookie dough. You can also use dark chocolate for the coating. Melt dark chocolate instead of white chocolate for a richer taste. Serve these truffles on a nice plate. Use mini cupcake liners for a fun touch. Garnish with extra crushed cookies or mint leaves. This adds color and style to your dish.

Ingredients
  

1 cup crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos)

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup white chocolate chips

1 tablespoon coconut oil

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Additional crushed cookies for coating

Instructions
 

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and softened cream cheese. Mix well until everything is fully combined and a dough-like texture forms.

    Using your hands, roll the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. You should get around 15-20 truffle balls.

      Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the truffle balls to firm up.

        While the truffle balls are chilling, prepare the coating. In a microwave-safe bowl, add the white chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.

          Remove the truffle balls from the refrigerator. Using a fork, dip each ball into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated. Let the excess chocolate drip off and return to the baking sheet.

            While the coating is still wet, sprinkle additional crushed cookies over the top of each truffle ball for decoration.

              Once all truffle balls are coated, return them to the refrigerator to set for about 10-15 minutes, or until the white chocolate has hardened.

                Prep Time: 15 minutes | Total Time: 1 hour | Servings: 15-20 truffles

                  - Presentation Tips: Arrange the truffle balls on a decorative plate and garnish with additional crushed cookies and mint leaves for a pop of color. Serve them inside mini cupcake liners for an elegant touch!
