Ingredients

  • 36 Oreo Cookies (Swap for gluten-free Oreos if needed)
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese (Use full-fat for richer taste)
  • 12 oz White Chocolate (Feel free to try milk or dark chocolate)
  • Sprinkles or Edible Eyes (Optional for decoration)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs.
  2. Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with softened cream cheese and mix until well-blended and smooth.
  3. Step 3: Scoop out portions of the mixture and roll them into balls, shaping them to resemble ghost-like figures.
  4. Step 4: Place the shaped truffles onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill for about 15 minutes.
  5. Step 5: Melt the white chocolate in short bursts of 20-30 seconds, stirring in between, until smooth.
  6. Step 6: Dip each ghost truffle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated, then allow excess to drip off.
  7. Step 7: Before the coating sets, add sprinkles or edible eyes for decoration.
  8. Step 8: Let the truffles sit at room temperature until the chocolate hardens completely, about 30 minutes.

Tips & Variations

  • For a dairy-free option, try using vegan cream cheese and dairy-free chocolate.
  • To add flavor twists, mix in a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon with the cream cheese.
  • If you prefer a darker coating, use milk or dark chocolate instead of white chocolate.
  • Decorate with different colored sprinkles or edible markers to create unique ghost faces.

Storage

Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Before serving, let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes for the best texture. These truffles are not recommended for freezing as the texture may change.

How to Serve

A white round plate holds five ghost-shaped treats, each with a smooth white chocolate coating forming the ghost body and draping slightly at the bottom edges. Each ghost has two round dark chocolate eyes placed near the top center, creating a cute face. The ghost in the foreground is bitten into, revealing a crumbly dark chocolate cake-like interior with a rough texture. The other four ghosts stand whole in the background, highlighting the creamy smooth outer layer and dark chocolate eye contrast. The plate sits on a white marbled surface. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use regular cream cheese straight from the fridge?

It’s best to soften the cream cheese to room temperature so it mixes smoothly with the cookie crumbs, resulting in a better texture for the truffles.

How do I make the chocolate coating smooth and even?

Melting the chocolate in short bursts and stirring frequently helps prevent burning and produces a smooth, glossy coating that covers the truffles evenly.
