How to Make Valentine Oreo Truffles
Grab your ingredients and tools.
Making Oreo Truffles is simple and fun! Start by crushing golden Oreos into fine crumbs and mixing them with softened cream cheese to form a dough.
For the smoothest texture, crush the Oreos in a food processor until fine crumbs form. If you don’t have one, a plastic bag and rolling pin work too.
Scoop and shape the dough into balls, then freeze for an hour on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to set.
Freezing the balls for an hour helps them hold their shape when dipped in melted chocolate.
Dip each truffle in pink-tinted melted white chocolate and decorate with sprinkles and googly eyes for a festive touch.
If your melted chocolate feels too thick, add a small amount of coconut oil for a smoother coating.
Add sprinkles and googly eyes while the chocolate coating is still wet to ensure they stick.
Once the coating hardens, your chocolate truffles are ready!

Absolutely! Classic, golden, or even flavored Oreos like red velvet or strawberry work well. Pick a flavor that suits your Valentine’s theme!
Yes! These are perfect for making ahead. Prepare and freeze them without dipping in chocolate. Dip and decorate closer to serving time.
Yes, they need to be refrigerated. Since they are made with cream cheese, it’s important to keep them chilled to prevent spoilage. Store the Oreo balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator, where they will stay fresh for up to a week. If you’d like to store them longer, you can freeze them for up to 2 months. Just thaw in the fridge before serving!

How to Make Valentines Day Oreo Truffles
Valentine’s Day Oreo Balls are a must-try! Simple, delicious, and decorated to impress.
Ingredients
- 15.35 oz golden Oreos (or any vanilla sandwich cookie)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 12 oz white candy melts
- Pink gel food coloring
- Valentine sprinkles
- 36 Googly eyes
- OPTIONAL: coconut oil
Instructions
- Place Oreos in your food processor and blend until they are fine crumbs.
- Or alternatively, put the entire package of oreos in a large plastic zipper storage bag and roll over them with a rolling pin until you have oreo crumbs.
- In a medium mixing bowl, beat Oreo cookie crumbs and cream cheese together until well combined into a dough-like consistency.
- Using a 1-inch scoop, place spoonfuls of cookie balls on a baking sheet lined with a piece of parchment paper.
- For best results, freeze truffles for 1 hour. This step helps everything stay together once it hits the melted chocolate.
- Melt white bark in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring often until smooth.
- When the bark is completely melted, add pink gel food coloring.
- The exact amount will depend on the type of food coloring you are using.
- OPTIONAL: If you think the bark is a bit too thick, you can add a small amount of coconut oil to thin it.
- Dip each truffle into melted chocolate using two forks, allowing excess to drip off.
- Place the Valentine's Day truffle back onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Add sprinkles for hair, eyes, and a nose before bark hardens.
- Use small tweezers to place them right where you want them on the Valentine oreo balls.
- Chill until the bark is hardened.
- Truffles will stay fresh in an airtight container for up to three days.
