Imagine creamy Nutella mingling with crumbly OREO THINS, forming little bites of happiness. Easy to make and utterly delicious, these truffles are bound to bring smiles all around, making everyone feel special without much fuss. Let’s dive into this chocolatey adventure together!
Ingredients
Scale
- 25 OREO THINS cookies (half of a 13.1 oz. package)
- 4 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
- ⅔ cup Nutella
- ¼ tsp salt
- 10 ounces milk chocolate melting wafers (I used Ghirardelli brand)
- Chocolate sprinkles for garnish
Instructions
- Line a small rimmed baking tray with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a food processor, add the OREO THINS cookies and pulse until you have very fine cookie crumbs. This will take 1-2 minutes.
- To the cookie crumbs, add the cream cheese, Nutella, and salt. Pulse an additional 1-2 minutes or until a ball forms in the bowl of your food processor. All the ingredients should be completely combined and smooth.
- Carefully remove the bowl and blade from your food processor and place the Nutella truffle mixture into the refrigerator to chill for 30-45 minutes. It should be firm enough to hold the shape of a ball.
- Using a small 1 ½ in. or 1 tablespoon-sized cookie scoop, scoop out a leveled amount and roll it in the palm of your hand to form a ball. Place the ball of Nutella truffle onto the prepared baking tray. Repeat until all the truffles have been made.
- Place the tray of Nutella truffles into the refrigerator to chill for an additional 1-1 ½ hours or until they are firm and hold their shape.
- Once your Nutella truffles have chilled, make the chocolate coating by melting the milk chocolate wafers in a small bowl according to your package directions.
- Using a large fork, place 1 truffle onto the prongs of the fork and gently dip the truffle into the melting chocolate. Evenly coat the truffle with the chocolate, then using the fork, lift it out of the chocolate allowing any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
- Place the chocolate-coated truffle back onto the parchment-lined baking tray and sprinkle a few chocolate sprinkles onto the top as a garnish. Repeat until all the truffles are coated and garnished.
- You can place your tray of milk chocolate-coated Nutella truffles back into the refrigerator to harden the outer coating for an additional 5-10 minutes or let them sit at room temperature until they are hard.
Notes
- Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- These truffles can be made a day in advance for convenience.
- Feel free to use different types of chocolate for coating if desired.
