All the flavor of a chocolate peanut butter cup wrapped up in a decadent truffle, these peanut butter Oreo truffle balls are a dairy-free delight.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 33 Oreo Cookies, original package
  • 4 ounces Dairy-Free Cream Cheese, softened
  • ½ cup Creamy Peanut Butter, softened
  • 10 ounces Dairy-Free Chocolate Chips
  • 1 teaspoon Coconut Oil
  • Crushed salted peanuts, for topping (optional but delicious)

Instructions

  1. Allow 4 ounces dairy-free cream cheese to soften to room temperature.
  2. In a blender or base of a food processor, pulse 33 Oreo cookies until they are fine and crumbly.
  3. Add crushed Oreo, softened dairy-free cream cheese, and ½ cup softened creamy peanut butter to a mixing bowl.
  4. Stir together until smooth and evenly distributed.
  5. Using a 1 Tablespoon sized scoop, scoop and ball the peanut butter truffles and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
  6. Store the truffles in the fridge for about 30 minutes to allow them to set.
  7. When you are ready to coat the peanut butter oreo truffle balls, begin making the chocolate coating.
  8. In a medium sized mixing bowl, melt together 10 ounces dairy-free chocolate chips with 1 teaspoon coconut oil.
  9. Dip the truffle ball into the melted chocolate and lift out on a fork. Tap to remove excess chocolate and place on the parchment lined baking sheet. 
  10. Sprinkle with crushed salted peanuts and repeat with the remaining truffle balls
  11. Place in the refrigerator to set.

Notes

I find that the double broiler method for making dipping chocolate works best to keep the chocolate smooth and easy to dip from start to finish.
