Easy 3-ingredient Halloween Oreo truffles decorated as mummies, ghosts, or pumpkins. These no-bake treats are perfect for parties.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 24 Oreo cookies
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 12 oz white chocolate melting wafers or candy melts
  • Optional: black edible marker or candy eyes

Instructions

  1. Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix the Oreo crumbs and softened cream cheese until well combined.
  3. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Chill the Oreo balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes until firm.
  5. Melt the white chocolate melting wafers or candy melts according to package directions. You can use a double boiler or microwave in short intervals, stirring frequently. If using candy melts, they are designed to set without tempering. If using white chocolate, you may need to temper it for a smooth, shiny coating that doesn’t crack.
  6. Dip each chilled Oreo ball into the melted coating, ensuring it is fully covered. Let excess coating drip off.
  7. Place the coated truffles back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. Decorate immediately while the coating is still wet:
    • For mummies: Drizzle thin lines of melted coating back and forth across the truffle to create mummy wrappings. Use a black edible marker or small dots of melted coating to add eyes.
    • For ghosts: Drizzle thin lines of melted coating to create a ghostly shape. Add candy eyes or use a black edible marker for eyes.
    • For pumpkins: Tint some of the melted coating orange if desired. Drizzle thin lines to resemble pumpkin ribs. Add a small stem with green candy melts or a piece of a chocolate kiss if desired.
  9. Allow the truffles to set completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes.

Notes

  • For a clean dip, ensure your Oreo balls are very cold and firm before dipping.
  • Store leftover truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • You can use milk or dark chocolate for dipping, but white chocolate is often preferred for Halloween decorating.
  • If your melted coating seems too thick, you can stir in a teaspoon of coconut oil or vegetable shortening to thin it out.
