These delicious 3 ingredient Oreo Chocolate Truffles are an easy no-bake treat made with crushed up Oreo cookies, vegan cream cheese, and dark chocolate.

The perfect treat for Valentine’s or any special occasion or just to show you love someone.

Ingredients

1. 38 Oreo Cookies

1. 8 oz vegan cream cheese at room temperature (Violife or Oatley do a great vegan cream cheese)
2. 200 g dark chocolate

Optional

For decorating: melted white vegan chocolate, Oreo crumbs, sprinkles, crushed peppermint, coconut flakes or chopped nuts, if desired.

Method:

• Line an 18 by 13-inch baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper.
• Crush the Oreos in a food processor or by hand – place the Oreos in a plastic bag, and bash them with the back of a spoon until they’re crumbly.
• Combine with the cream cheese in a bowl.
• Scoop the mixture out about 1 Tbsp at a time and form into 1 inch balls then and place on the baking sheet.
• Place truffles in freezer for 15 minutes.
• Melt the dark chocolate either in the microwave or steam in a glass bowl over a pan of simmering water.
• Remove truffles from freezer and dip in the melted chocolate, using a spoon to pour some chocolate over the top then lift and allow excess chocolate to run off. 
• Return to baking sheet, sprinkle with toppings if desired, or leave them plain then allow chocolate to set. ( We drizzled them with melted vegan white chocolate chips after they had set.
• When they are all dipped and decorated, place the baking sheet or tray in the refrigerator and chill for at least an hour.
• Store in an airtight container in refrigerator.

These were so good, delicious Chocolatey and soft crumbly smooth inside. Vegan or not all chocolate lovers can enjoy these simple yet impressive.
