Ingredients Needed

Gather your kitchen essentials and get ready to embark on a delightful culinary adventure with these Snickerdoodle cookie dough truffles. You'll only need a handful of simple yet essential ingredients to create these delightful treats.

Cream cheese provides both richness and a creamy texture to the truffle filling. Its velvety consistency contributes to the smoothness of the interior of the truffle while also enhancing the overall taste profile.

The 5 ingredients needed to make snickerdoodle truffles.

Golden Oreos adds a delightful twist to the classic recipe. The vanilla-flavored sandwich cookies bring a unique sweetness and a buttery undertone to the truffle mixture.

Cinnamon brings a warm and aromatic quality that enhances the overall taste profile of the truffles. Vanilla extract enhances the overall flavor profile of these festive treats.

White almond bark is what gives these edible cookie dough balls their delightful chocolate coating.

Substitutions

Discover how you can tailor these ingredients to better align with your dietary preferences through these substitutions.

When it comes to the cream cheese mascarpone cheese is a great substition. Mascarpone cheese is a rich and creamy Italian cheese that has a slightly different flavor profile but works well in dessert recipes.

There are many replacements for the golden Oreos such as vanilla wafers, shortbread cookies, or graham crackers. When substituting, consider the flavor profile you want for your Snickerdoodle truffles. And choose a cookie that complements the cinnamon and vanilla notes in the recipe.

While cinnamon plays a crucial role in Snickerdoodles, feel free to swap it out with allspice, nutmeg, or cardamom as needed.

Vanilla extract can be substituted with either vanilla beans, vanilla paste, maple syrup, or almond extract.

We opted not to roll the raw cookie dough into cinnamon sugar before coating it with chocolate. If you want to add to the taste of these delectable truffles simply blend together some cinnamon and white sugar.

Then roll the truffles into the mixture before freezing and coating them in chocolate.

Your favorite type of melting white chocolate can be used in replacement of the white almond bark. If you are not a fan of white chocolate it can be replaced by milk chocolate or dark chocolate.

How To Make

Golden Oreos crumbled in a food processor.

These delightful truffles are easy to make with just a few simple steps. We are going to start by preparing a cookie sheet pan with parchment paper. This will help the truffles from sticking to the sheet pan.

I used my food processor to crumble the Oreo cookies but a blender will also work. You may have to work in batches to get all the cookies crumbled. You can also place the cookies in a ziplock bag and use a rolling pin to crush them.

Into the fine crumbs of cookies add in the room temperature cream cheese, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Mix until all the ingredients are combined together. I did this all in my food processor but a medium bowl will work.

Using a small cookie scoop scoop 1-inch balls out, then roll them between your hands to get a tighter ball. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet.

Once you have all the truffle balls formed place the sheet pan in the freezer for 10 minutes. Freezing will create a firm base which will result in a smoother finish.

Into a large bowl add in the 16 oz of vanilla-flavored candy coating. Place the microwave-safe bowl into the microwave, and heat for 30-second intervals. Stirring the chocolate bark in between the 30 second intervals until the chocolate is melted.

With the almond bark melted dip the slightly frozen Snickerdoodle cookie truffles into the melted chocolate. Shake any excess chocolate off, then place balls back on the parchment-lined sheet pan to allow the chocolate to set up.

I melted some red candy melts in a small bowl and drizzled on the tops of the truffles then added some holiday sprinkles. This just makes for festive truffles and is optional.

How To Store

Store them in an airtight container, for best results keep the container of truffles refrigerated.

FAQ

Now to answer some common questions about Snickerdoodle truffles.

Can I make Snickerdoodle truffles ahead of time?

Yes, making them ahead of time will allow the flavors to mend together enhancing the overall flavor of the truffles.

How long will Snickerdoodle truffles stay fresh for?

If they are stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator they will last for up to a week.

Do I have to freeze the truffles before dipping them into the chocolate?

Freezing the truffles isn't necessary but is recommended.

How do I prevent the truffles from sticking together when storing?

Allowing the chocolate to be fully set before placing them in the container is one way. Placing parchment paper between layers of truffles is another way.

Yes, chopped nuts can be added into the cookie dough.
