Instructions
In a food processor, pulse the gluten-free Oreos until finely crushed into crumbs.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreos, softened cream cheese, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
Use a tablespoon-sized portion scoop (#60 scoop) to portion out the dough into 24 equal pieces. Using your hands, roll the Oreo mixture into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Refrigerate the balls for about 15-20 minutes to firm up.
Meanwhile, melt the semi-sweet chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. It should take about 60-90 seconds total in the microwave.
Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off. Place back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Immediately sprinkle the tops with sprinkles if desired, before the chocolate sets. Alternatively, you can wait until the chocolate sets a bit and then drizzle the tops with more semi-sweet chocolate (or use white chocolate for a contrasting color). You can sprinkle the wet drizzle with sprinkles.
Once all truffles are coated, refrigerate them for about 15-20 minutes or until the chocolate is set. Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
If you have celiac disease or are on a gluten-free diet for any reason, be sure to double check your ingredients to ensure they are gluten-free.
Use regular gluten-free Oreos for this recipe, NOT the double stuffed. You can also use other brands of gluten-free chocolate sandwich cookies for this recipe. Glutino, Kinnikinnick, Goodie Girl are all great brands.
Use a tablespoon-sized portion scoop (#60 scoop) to portion out the Oreo truffles into equal sized pieces.
Store in an airtight container or gallon sized ziploc bag in the refrigerator for up to a week or freeze for longer storage.
