This recipe could not be easier, or taste better. I’d rather eat these than plain oreo’s. And I like them SO much better than I like cake balls. I use these for all parties, birthday’s, gatherings, etc… And since they are so easy to make they are my go too for a sweet snack when I’m craving something fast and simple. I wouldn’t call them truffles, which is what I was told they were the first time I tried them. So I call them Oreo “truffle” balls.

sigh….. no one ever has a dairy free recipw for the yummy stuff. I can get away with oreos (just a teeny bit of whey powder) but cream cheese is a whole different matter. :o(
Thanks for taking time to send me the link.
Sorry about that! I do have some dairy free stuff, but I tend to use lot of butter, cream, milk, etc… Maybe there is another way to mix them together? Any dairy free thick frosting should work okay!
Do you remove the filling from the Oreos and just use the wafers?
nope, just crush them the way they are (I like to run them through a food processor for finer crumbs)
