I first made these Ghost Oreo Truffles when I desperately needed a last-minute party treat that looked cute without requiring any real decorating skills. There’s no baking involved, no fancy equipment, and no stress if they’re a little uneven. In fact, the messier they look, the better they work as ghosts.

You will just need crushed Oreos, cream cheese, and melted white chocolate, and you can do the whole thing with a bowl and a rolling pin (crushig the oreos that is). Add candy eyes while the coating is still soft and you’ve got a cute, no-bake treat that’s easy to share and hard to mess up.

How to Make Ghost Oreo Truffles

Place the Oreos in a zip-top bag, seal it tightly, and crush them using a rolling pin until you have fine crumbs.

Transfer the crushed Oreos to a mixing bowl and add the cream cheese. Mix until fully combined and a thick dough forms.

Using a small cookie scoop, portion the mixture into balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Transfer the tray to the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes, just until the dough firms up, which makes shaping easier.

While the truffles are chilling, melt the candy melts. You can do this in the microwave using 15-second intervals, stirring between each round, or by using a double boiler on the stove. If you’re using white chocolate, melt gently to avoid burning.

Remove the truffles from the freezer and shape each one into a ghost form. Using a fork, dip each ghost into the melted white chocolate, coating it completely. Tap off any excess chocolate and place it back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. While the chocolate is still tacky, press the candy eyes into place.

Allow the chocolate to fully set before serving or storing.

💡 Tips & Tricks

• Use candy melts if your white chocolate wants to seize or clump.
• Chill the truffles really well to avoid crumbs in the melted coating.
• To avoid cracks, let the truffles sit at room temp 5 minutes before dipping.
• Use a toothpick to patch any bald spots with extra melted chocolate.

Substitutions
