It doesn’t matter whether you call these Oreo balls, truffles or cake pops….
The fact remains, they are deliciously decadent!
Strictly speaking… they are not cookies, but they are perfect for Christmas!
Thank you for joining my friends and I as we share our favourite cookie recipes this week on our 2014 Christmas Cookie Exchange.
My biscuit truffle balls are definitely one of my favorite ‘Go To’ recipes.
I’ve already shared my Tim Tam and Mint Slice truffles here and my Choc Mint balls here.
The Oreo Balls are just another version of this super easy, 3 ingredient recipe.
It’s as simple as crush, mix, roll and dip!
Ingredients:
200 grams of biscuits (I used the plain cream filled Oreo’s),
80 grams of Philadelphia Cream Cheese – I used the light version,
White chocolate melts.
Method:
1. Crush biscuits in a food processor.
2. Add 80 grams of chopped up Cream Cheese and mix ingredients together in food processor.
3. Roll mixture into small balls and place in refrigerator to chill and firm.
4. Meanwhile, melt white chocolate for dipping.
5. Using either a dipping tool or fork, lower the balls one at the time into the melted chocolate mix. Shake off excess chocolate and leave to dry on a sheet of silicon paper.
6. Enhance the top of your balls with a sprinkling of crushed candy cane or cookie crumbs.
It really is that easy!!
But the result will look like you’ve spent many hours in the kitchen.

I made these once and people raved over them. Thanks so much for reminding me of this treat that is a real crowd pleaser. I love how you decorated yours with crushed candy canes. I’m going to do that when I make my next batch.
Yum Kerryanne! I love Oreos! 🙂 Julie
These look amazing! Definitely trying these — pinning! 🙂
Oh my! These look simply heavenly! I LOVE Oreos but have never mixed them with cream cheese. Can’t wait to give these a try!
Thank you for hosting the Cookie Exchange 🙂

Oh dear, I think the pounds will be something that I will be gaining if I make all these delish treats.
