Ingredients
Note: The pearl dust is totally optional. It doesn’t add any flavor. It just makes it shiny and pretty!
Step 1
First, crush the Oreos in your food processor.
Tip:
- If you have a small food processor, I found it is better to do one row of Oreos at a time.
Step 2
Pour your crushed Oreos into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Step 3
Next add your caramel to the crushed Oreos and mix thoroughly with a silicone spatula.
Step 4
Form your cookie mixture into 25 even balls and place on a silicone mat.
Tips:
- The mixture will be very sticky so you may want to coat your hands in non-stick spray.
- If the mixture is too loose to work with, chill it in the fridge for 30 minutes before forming your balls.
Step 5
Now freeze your balls (still on the mat) for 1 hour.
Step 6
Next, melt your chocolate chips.
Step 7
Then stir the shortening into your melted chocolate chips.
Tip:
- This will make the chocolate coat the balls better.
Step 8
Using a fork dip your frozen balls into the chocolate to cover and then return to your silicone mat.
Step 9
Let the chocolate set before moving on.
Step 10
Lastly, brush each truffle with Wilton Pearl Dust.
Tip:
- I brushed mine directly on but you can also mix it with a dab of almond extract for a more metallic look.
