No-bake Oreo cookie balls

We love Nabisco’s OREO cookies, the delicious chocolate cookie on the outside and the soft creamy center are pretty hard to resist! I love trying new desserts, and making these chocolate OREO truffle balls was on the list. I am not a huge fan of cream cheese, which I have seen in every other OREO truffles recipe, so I had to make some Oreo balls without cream cheese. I thought I would try something else to help hold the crushed OREO cookies together – BUTTER.

  • Thank you so much. I have a student that is vegan and it was very hard to make sure I did not add anything that could harm him

  • Hi, can they be left at room temperature for days? Im making it for a festive season thus it cant be kept in a refrigerator.

    • Hi! I made these 3 years ago.
      They were fantastic!
      Yes! You can keep them cold by taking a clear container half- filled with ice cubes, & place the plate that your using for your truffles on top of the ice.

      Have a great time!

  • Hi, thanks for sharing your recipe. How many balls would one recipe yield? I eant to use it as gifts but not sure how much ingredients to get id I’m making 5 dozens.

    • Thanks, you’d have to substitute the butter for a non-dairy one – olive oil based spreads, some margarines, I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter, etc. Sorry, I should have mentioned that specifically in the post.
