My boys had a blast decorating these little treats, and of course, eating them too! I hope you enjoy them as much as we did!

  2. Stir together the crushed cookies with softened cream cheese in a medium bowl until smooth.
  3. Chill the mixture for about 20 minutes until firm to make it easier to work with.
  4. Scoop the truffle dough out in about 1/4 cup portions roll it into small egg-shaped balls and place them on a parchment paper or wax paper-lined tray or baking sheet.
  5. Melt the candy or chocolate according to the package directions in the microwave or using a double broiler.
  6. Using a toothpick, dip and coat each truffle into the candy melts, tapping off any excess chocolate.
  7. Let the candy coating harden, then decorate as you like!

Tips for best results

  • Use a cookie scoop: Use a small cookie scoop to keep the egg size uniform
  • Freeze the dough: If you have time, place the rolled truffle dough balls in the freezer for an hour before dipping it in the candy melts for easier handling.
  • Work in batches: Only dip a few truffles at a time to keep the others firm while you work.
  • Use frosting pens: If you want super neat designs, try using frosting pens or edible markers.
  • Tap off the excess: Gently tap the dipped truffle to get rid of extra candy coating for a smoother finish.

Variations

For a fun twist, try using different cookie flavors! Golden Oreos give a lighter, vanilla flavor, mint Oreos offer a refreshing twist, and of course peanut butter Oreos are a crowd favorite.

You can also experiment with candy melts—pastel shades are perfect for Easter, go bold with metallics, or even swirl two colors for a cool marbled effect.

Serving suggestions

Serve these truffles as part of a dessert spread at your Easter celebrations or package them up in cellophane bags and give as gifts.

Storage

To keep your Easter egg truffles fresh, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. If you’ve made them ahead for an event, they’ll last just fine for a few days in the fridge, and you can even freeze the Oreo cookie balls before decorating if needed.
