Description
Delicious no-bake truffles that combine the nostalgic flavors of orange and vanilla in a creamy, rich bite-sized treat.
Ingredients
For the truffles
- 14 cookies Vanilla sandwich cookies (like Golden Oreos) (Alternatively, vanilla wafers can be used.)
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened (Full fat for best texture.)
- 1 tbsp Orange zest (Fresh is recommended for maximum flavor.)
- 8 oz White chocolate or white candy melts for coating (Candy melts are easier for beginners.)
- 1 tsp Orange extract (Optional, but boosts flavor.)
Instructions
Preparation
- Crush the cookies into fine crumbs until sandy.
- Mix the crumbs with softened cream cheese, orange zest, and orange extract until a thick dough forms.
- Scoop and roll into balls, placing them on a parchment-lined pan.
Chilling
- Chill the truffle balls for at least 30 to 45 minutes until firm.
Coating
- Dip the chilled truffles in melted white chocolate, letting the excess drip off, and set back on the parchment to harden.
Notes
You can vary the toppings with sprinkles, extra orange zest, or crushed cookies. These truffles can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to a week or frozen for two months. Always ensure to chill the truffles for easy dipping.
