Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 package Oreo Cookies Regular or Double Stuf
- 8 oz Cream Cheese Softened
- 2 tbsp Irish Cream Liqueur Baileys or similar
- 12 oz Chocolate Chips Semi-sweet or milk chocolate
- 1 tsp Vegetable Oil Optional, for smoother chocolate
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a resealable bag and crushing them with a rolling pin.
- In a large bowl, combine the crushed Oreo crumbs and softened cream cheese. Mix well until fully combined.
- Stir in the Irish Cream liqueur until evenly distributed.
- Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Add vegetable oil if desired for a smoother consistency.
- Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, coating it completely. Place the coated truffles back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Refrigerate for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
Notes
For a festive touch, sprinkle the truffles with green sprinkles or edible glitter before the chocolate sets.
