Ingredients

  • 36 Oreo cookies (regular, not Double Stuf)
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 20-24 soft caramels (Werther's Soft Caramels recommended)
  • 16 oz white chocolate candy melts or white almond bark
  • Gold sprinkles for decoration

Instructions

  • Line a baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Add the Oreo cookies to a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs.
  • Add the softened cream cheese and vanilla extract, then pulse until the mixture is well combined and forms a dough-like consistency.
  • Scoop about 1½ tablespoons of the Oreo mixture and flatten it into a disc roughly 2 inches wide.
  • Place one soft caramel in the center of the disc, then carefully wrap the Oreo mixture around it, rolling into a smooth ball.
  • Make sure the caramel is completely sealed inside.
  • Repeat with the remaining mixture and caramels.
  • Arrange the formed truffles on the prepared baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes to firm up.
  • While the truffles chill, melt the white chocolate candy melts according to package directions, stirring until completely smooth.
  • Remove the truffles from the freezer.
  • Working with one truffle at a time, drop it into the melted white chocolate.
  • Use a fork to roll it around until fully coated, then lift it out with the fork.
  • Gently tap the fork on the edge of the bowl to let excess chocolate drip off.
  • Place back on the baking sheet and immediately top with gold sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
  • Repeat with the remaining truffles.
  • Allow the chocolate coating to set completely at room temperature, or place in the refrigerator for faster setting.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

Use soft caramels for best results. Make sure caramel is completely sealed inside mixture. Freeze before dipping for easier handling. Add sprinkles immediately before chocolate sets.
