Ghost OREO Ball Truffles (Print-Friendly Version)
Creamy Oreo and cream cheese balls coated in smooth white chocolate, shaped into playful ghostly treats.
# What You'll Need:
→ Truffle Mixture
01 -
150 grams Oreo cookies, crushed finely (gluten-free variation optional)
02 -
110 grams full-fat cream cheese, softened to room temperature
→ Chocolate Coating
03 -
200 grams white chocolate, melted smoothly
→ Decoration (optional)
04 -
Sprinkles or edible eyes for decorating
# How to Make It:
01 -
Pulse Oreo cookies in a food processor until fine crumbs form. In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbs with softened cream cheese and mix thoroughly using a spatula or hand mixer until smooth and homogeneous, approximately 3 to 5 minutes.
02 -
Scoop portions of the mixture and roll them between your palms to form approximately 2.5 cm diameter balls. Gently shape each ball into a ghost silhouette with a slightly pointed top to emulate a spooky figure.
03 -
Arrange shaped ghosts on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up, easing subsequent chocolate coating.
04 -
Melt white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, heating in 20–30 second intervals. Stir between bursts until fully melted and smooth. Avoid overheating to prevent burning.
05 -
Remove chilled ghosts from the refrigerator. Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate ensuring full coverage, then lift with a fork allowing excess chocolate to drip off before placing back on parchment.
06 -
Before the coating sets, adorn each ghost with sprinkles or edible eyes to enhance their whimsical appearance and individuality.
07 -
Allow coated ghosts to set at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes or refrigerate for 10-15 minutes for faster firming. Serve once chocolate has hardened completely.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Ensure cream cheese is softened to room temperature for ideal mixing. Melting chocolate in short bursts with stirring prevents burning. Refrigerate truffles before coating to maintain shape and reduce mess.
