We laughed the whole time, sneaking bites of the Oreo-cream cheese mix, with more of it ending up in our mouths than in the freezer.

Step-by-Step Guide to the Best Football Shaped Oreo Truffles

Tools You’ll Need

• Food Processor
• Mixing Bowl
• Parchment Paper
• Baking Sheet
• Microwave-Safe Bowl
• Fork
• Zip-Top Bag

Step 1: Preparation for the Football Shaped Oreo Truffles

• Oreo cookies
• Cream cheese
• Chocolate almond bark
• Small amount of white frosting, for decorating laces

Step 2: Cooking the Football Shaped Oreo Truffles

Line a cookie sheet with wax paper or parchment paper. Crush the Oreo cookies (filling included) into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and smashing with a rolling pin. Mix the softened cream cheese with the Oreo crumbs in a large bowl until fully combined and smooth. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and roll into a ball, then shape into a mini football. Flatten the top slightly and pinch the ends.

Step 3: Assembling and Finishing

Place each football-shaped truffle onto the cookie sheet and freeze for at least 1 hour. Break the almond bark into pieces and melt in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 1 minute, stir, then continue in 20-second intervals until fully melted and smooth. Remove a few truffles from the freezer at a time and dip each into the melted chocolate using a fork. Tap off the excess and place back on the lined sheet. Let the chocolate coating set for about 10 minutes. Pipe football laces onto each truffle using white frosting in a zip-top bag with a tiny corner cut off.
