Ingredients

Scale

Cheesecake Filling

3 oz Cream Cheese (at room temperature)
3 Tbsp Powdered Sugar
1.5 Tbsp Strawberry Preserves
0.125 tsp Vanilla Extract (pure vanilla extract recommended)
Pinch Salt

Oreo Dough

36 Golden Oreo Cookies (Nabisco recommended)
8 oz Cream Cheese (at room temperature)

Chocolate Coating & Topping

14 oz Pink Melting Chocolates (approximately 1 ¼ cups)
0.5 cup White Chocolate
3 Golden Oreos (for crumbles)
0.25 cup Freeze Dried Strawberries

Instructions

Preparation: Gather all ingredients at room temperature to ensure smooth blending and melting processes.
Make Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, blend together 3 oz cream cheese, powdered sugar, strawberry preserves, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy. Place the mixture in the freezer for about 40-45 minutes to firm up.
Prepare Oreo Crust Dough: Crush 36 Golden Oreo cookies finely in a food processor until you have fine crumbs. Combine these crumbs with 8 oz softened cream cheese and mix thoroughly until a dough-like consistency is achieved.
Form Truffles: Take tablespoon-sized portions of the Oreo dough, flatten each portion into a small circle, place a chilled dollop of the cheesecake filling in the center, then carefully wrap the dough around the filling to enclose it fully. Roll them gently into smooth balls and freeze for an additional 15-20 minutes to set.
Make Topping Crumble: Pulse 3 Golden Oreos together with 0.25 cup freeze-dried strawberries in the food processor until small chunky crumbles form for a crunchy fruity topping.
Melt Pink Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the pink melting chocolates in short bursts of 20-30 seconds, stirring in between until smooth and fully melted.
Coat Truffles: Dip each chilled truffle into the melted pink chocolate, ensuring full coverage, and place onto a parchment-lined tray to set.
Decorate and Set: Melt the white chocolate similarly, then drizzle it over the coated truffles. Immediately sprinkle the strawberry-Oreo crumble topping. Let the truffles set at room temperature until the chocolate hardens before serving.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easier blending.
Freeze the cheesecake mixture thoroughly to prevent leakage when forming truffles.
Use high-quality melting chocolates for smooth coating and better flavor.
Truffles can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
For extended storage, freeze truffles for up to 2 weeks, thaw before serving.
