Instructions

Prepare a sheet pan that fits in your freezer or fridge with parchment paper and set aside.
Place Oreos in a food processor and run in 10-second increments until they become fine crumbs.
Transfer the cookie crumbs to a mixing bowl, add cream cheese, and mix well. Using your hands can help to combine thoroughly.
Use a 1.5-tablespoon cookie scoop to form truffles and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Roll into smooth balls, then freeze for 30 minutes or refrigerate for an hour.
Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, or use a double boiler method.
If coloring the chocolate, add a small drop of food coloring to the melted chocolate to achieve your desired hue.
Dip each truffle in the melted chocolate using a fork, ensuring they are fully coated, and tap off any excess. Place on the sheet.
If doing drizzles, chill the truffles for about 10 minutes before decorating as desired.
Add sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet, and allow them to set on the counter for about 2 hours.

Notes

For best results, use a good quality white chocolate for melting.
You can also mix in flavor extracts for a unique taste.
Store truffles in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
