Christmas Light Oreo Truffles
These truffles taste like oreo cheesecake – they are fabulous. We’re rolling them in colored sugar to make them sparkle just like real Christmas tree lights!
Ingredients (makes 9-10 truffles)
- 2 cups oreo cookie crumbs
- 250g cream cheese, room temperature
- 2 cups each pink, blue and yellow candy melts, melted
- 1 cup each pink, blue and yellow sanding sugar
- 9-10 mini chocolate peanut butter cups
- silver edible metallic spray
Directions
- Place the oreo cookie crumbs and cream cheese in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer until fully combined.
- Divide the mixture into 9-10 pieces and shape into Christmas light shapes. Place them on a plate lined with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
- Place the peanut butter cups on a sheet of parchment paper, with the largest side facing down. Spray all over with silver edible metallic spray. Set aside.
- To add the coating to the truffles, place a truffle on a fork and submerge it in one color of the melted candy melts. Allow the excess candy melts to drip off, then roll in the coordinating sugar. It may take a few minutes for the candy melts to set, so keep the truffle in the bowl of sprinkles until the candy melt coating feels stiff. Repeat with the remaining truffles.
- Dip the base of the peanut butter cups into some extra melted candy melts and stick one on each truffle.
