Makes approximately 36 truffles
Ingredients
1 package Golden Birthday Cake Oreos
1 can frosting
1 16 oz. package almond bark or candy coating (like CandyQuik), candy melts, or chocolate chips
2 tablespoons, sprinkles plus more for garnish
Method
Place Oreos in a food processor and pulse until they are fine crumbs. Next add 3/4 of a can of frosting. (I used cream cheese frosting which I prefer over vanilla.) Add 2 tablespoons of sprinkles and pulse your mixture in the food processor until well combined.
Roll your cookie mixture into 1” sized balls. Place your balls on wax paper in the freezer 30 minutes until firm.
Melt your candy coating according to the package directions. I like the convenience of CandyQuik since it comes with a microwave disposable tray. You can substitute candy melts or chocolate chips if you prefer. You can find almond bark/candy coating on the baking aisle near the chocolate.
Place your chilled truffle ball on a fork, dipping it and rolling it in melted candy coating. Once the ball is covered, tap the fork on the edge of the bowl to remove any excess and place your truffle ball on wax paper to set. Add your decorative sprinkles right away while candy coating is still warm. The candy coating sets up quickly.
Note: If adding a candle to your truffle, make a small hole with a toothpick first and place your candle in the truffle before the candy coating is set.
