Ingredients

• 36 pieces Oreo cookies
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 0.5 cup Maraschino cherries, drained and chopped
• 12 ounces Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 4 ounces White chocolate chips (optional, for drizzling)
• 1 teaspoon Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they are finely crushed into crumbs.

Step 2

Transfer the cookie crumbs to a large mixing bowl and add the softened cream cheese. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Fold in the chopped maraschino cherries until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

Step 4

Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, scoop out portions of the mixture and roll them into 1-inch balls. Place the truffles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 5

Chill the truffles in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Step 6

While the truffles are chilling, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely smooth. Stir in the vegetable oil to achieve a glossy finish.

Step 7

Using a fork or a dipping tool, dip each truffle into the melted chocolate until fully coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the truffle back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 8

If desired, melt the white chocolate chips in a separate microwave-safe bowl and drizzle over the truffles for decoration.

Step 9

Chill the finished truffles in the refrigerator for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate coating is fully set.

Step 10

Serve chilled and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
