What you need to make these Valentine truffles
To make these Valentine’s Day OREO truffles, here are the ingredients you’ll need and the tools I recommend:
- 36 sandwich cookies (such as OREO)
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 16 ounces white candy melts or vanilla candy melts
- Sugar sprinkles (I used Wilton pink and red sanding sugar) or additional crushed cookies
- Food processor
- Wax paper or parchment paper
- Optional: Dipping tool set
How to make Valentine’s Day truffles
To make these no-bake truffles, first line a baking sheet with wax or parchment paper and set it aside. Pulse the cookies in a food processor until they become fine crumbs (I used my Hamilton Beach 8-Cup Stack & Snap Food Processor – see it in use for my Pumpkin Spice Truffles recipe here). Add cream cheese and powdered sugar and process until well mixed. Cover and refrigerate the no-bake truffles dough for at least 1 hour.
To put your Valentine truffles together, roll the cookie mixture into 1-inch balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Place the tray of Valentine’s Day truffles in the refrigerator to chill for an additional 30 minutes. Towards the end of the chilling time, place white candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Let sit for 5 minutes before the next step in making these Valentine’s Day OREO truffles.
Remove the OREO cheesecake balls from refrigerator and dip them into the melted candy, one at a time, shaking off the excess. Place the dipped Valentine truffle balls back onto the lined baking sheet and sprinkle the tops with sprinkles or additional cookie crumbs while the candy coating is still wet. Place the tray back in the refrigerator until the chocolate coating is set (about 15 more minutes).
That’s all there is to it! Here’s the no-bake truffles recipe. If you love these Valentine’s Day OREO Truffles as much as we do, please consider showing some love by leaving a rating! Enjoy, and happy Valentine’s Day!

In case you haven’t noticed, for the last few months I’ve had a blue “Thank the creator” and “Thanks” button at the top and bottom of my blog posts. I’m one of Google’s paid early testers for their Thank with Google pilot program! This pilot test program is an experimental feature where fans can purchase a virtual sticker and directly show their support and appreciation for content on my website and the websites of other Thank with Google creators. When you click, you have the option to choose and select from a variety of different stickers to send. Every time you decide to send a paid sticker, you can send along a personal message (if you’d like). This not only shows me which of my content is providing you the most value (and the ways my recipes and projects are benefiting your life), but it also supports me by translating to direct revenue for Fab Everyday, which is my full-time job. If you do test out the Thank with Google feature, I’d love to know what you think! Your support means the world, so thank you for being here.
