How do I crush Oreo cookies efficiently?

Use a food processor for a fine crumb texture, or place cookies in a ziplock bag and crush with a rolling pin for manual preparation.

Can I use different coatings for these truffles?

Yes, white chocolate or candy melts work well; optionally, drizzle dark or milk chocolate for added flavor and decoration.

Freeze the shaped balls for about 30 minutes to firm them up, ensuring they hold shape during coating.

Festive sprinkles or crushed candy canes add a seasonal touch and enhance the visual appeal.

Keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week to maintain freshness and texture.
