30 cookies Golden Oreos
Add 8 oz of the cream cheese and pulse until fully combined. You may need to scrape down the sides a few times. *
12 oz cream cheese
Remove Oreo mixture from processor and divide into thirds. Add few drops of green food coloring to one bowl, red food coloring to another, and leave the last third plain.
Red and Green Food Coloring Gel
Add regular Oreos to clean processer and pulse until Oreos are a fine sandy texture.
15 cookies Regular Oreos
Add remining 4 oz of the cream cheese and pulse until fully combined.
Using a tablespoon scoop, add any combination of the Oreo filling colors. Roll into a ball then place on parchment lined baking sheet. Sometime gently rolling, then tearing the ball in half and rerolling gives a nice marbled look.
Freeze balls for 1 hour or overnight. You want them to be firm.
Microwave candy melts according to package instructions*, adding a little coconut oil or shortening if it is too thick.
1 ½ cup chocolate candy melts
Dip Oreo balls into the candy melts and set on a parchment lined baking sheet. Work in batches of 3-5, dipping, adding sprinkles etc. Work quickly because the candy melts will set up pretty fast.
If you are wanting to drizzle with a different color candy melt then wait until the candy melt sets then drizzle. *

Notes
Tips and Tricks
*If you don’t want a marbled color look, then use a full package of Oreos, add cream cheese, then dip in the candy melts and decorate! Or use all golden Oreos with food coloring for just a red and green filling!
*Candy Melt instructions: microwave candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl at 50% power in 30-second increments. Heat, stir, heat, etc., until almost all the candy is melted and smooth. Allow the candy melts to sit for 1 minute if there are little pieces that haven’t mixed in yet. If the candy melts are too thick, add 1 teaspoon coconut oil or shortening, stir in, and repeat until you get your desired consistency. *Leftovers: Keep any leftover Oreo truffles in an airtight container or baggie in the freezer. They will last for weeks (if you can keep from eating them for that long, that is)!
