Helpful Tips

Crush the Cookies Really Fine

You want the cookie crumbs to be as fine as possible, almost like a powder. If there are big chunks left, the mixture won’t hold together well when you try to roll it into balls.

A food processor is the easiest way to get them fine enough. If you’re using a bag and rolling pin, take your time and keep going until you don’t see any large pieces left.

Before you move on, run your fingers through the crumbs and feel for chunks. Even a few bigger pieces can make the truffles crack or fall apart when you dip them in chocolate.

Make Sure the Cream Cheese Is Soft

The cream cheese needs to be fully softened before you mix it with the cookie crumbs. If it’s still cold and firm, it won’t blend evenly and you’ll end up with lumps of cream cheese throughout the mixture.

Leave it out on the counter for about 30 to 45 minutes before you start. If you forgot to take it out ahead of time, you can microwave it for about 10 to 15 seconds, but don’t go longer or it’ll get too melty and change the texture of your truffles.

Don’t Skip the Freezer Step

After you roll the balls, those 10 minutes in the freezer are important. If you try to dip them in chocolate while they’re still soft, they’ll fall apart or slide right off your fork.

Irresistible gluten free no-bake Oreo truffles

The freezer firms them up just enough so they hold their shape during dipping. If your kitchen is warm, you might even want to go 15 minutes instead of 10.

If you’re working in batches, keep the balls you haven’t dipped yet in the freezer so they stay firm the whole time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which gluten free chocolate sandwich cookies work best for these truffles?

Glutino and Kinnikinnick both make great gluten free chocolate sandwich cookies that work perfectly here. They crush up nicely and have that classic cookie-and-cream flavor you want in an Oreo truffle.

If you can find the Oreo brand gluten free cookies, those are a fantastic option too since they taste almost identical to the original.

Can I use milk chocolate chips instead of dark chocolate?

Absolutely! Milk chocolate, white chocolate, or even semi-sweet chocolate chips all work great for coating these truffles. Just make sure whatever brand you pick is certified gluten free, since some chocolate chips can contain gluten or be processed in shared facilities.

Dark chocolate gives a nice contrast to the sweet cookie filling, but milk chocolate will give you a sweeter, creamier result that kids especially love.

How do I crush the cookies without making a mess?

The easiest way is to put the cookies in a large zip-top bag, seal it up, and crush them with a rolling pin until they turn into fine crumbs. You want them as fine as possible so the truffles hold together smoothly.

You can also pulse them in a food processor for about 30 seconds, which gives you the most even crumbs with the least effort.
