These sweet Snickerdoodle Truffles come together with zero oven time. They're just right whenever you want an easy treat, and you won't be able to stop at one with that creamy cinnamon center and vanilla dip.

Ingredients List

  • Sprinkles (optional): Toss on some colorful sprinkles fast, so they stick before everything sets.
  • 16 ounces vanilla almond bark: Melt this for a yummy shell around your bites.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract: Splash in some vanilla to boost all those creamy notes.
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon: Shakes up that cozy, spicy flavor you expect from snickerdoodle sweets.
  • 36 golden Oreo cookies (14.3-ounce package): Crush these up for buttery, sugary goodness inside every truffle.
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened: Your main mixer for getting those cookies to stick together just right.

Steps to Make It

Step 7:
Pop the finished truffles in the fridge for an hour or so and let them get nice and firm before you serve. If you like sprinkles, toss them on while the coating's still wet so they stick.
Step 6:
Grab a fork or your favorite candy tool and dunk each truffle into the melted coating. Let the extra drip off, then put them back onto your pan.
Step 5:
Melt the vanilla almond bark in a bowl in your microwave, hitting it for 30 seconds at a time and stirring each round. Stop when it's perfectly smooth.
Step 4:
Roll up your dough into balls, about the size of a ping pong ball, and spread them out on that lined tray. Chill them in your fridge for at least an hour so they hold together.
Step 3:
Stir your softened cream cheese, cookie crumbs, cinnamon, and vanilla together in a big bowl. Use an electric mixer if you've got one to make everything really creamy and well-mixed.
Step 2:
Break up your golden Oreos in a food processor, working in shifts if you need more space, until they’re as fine as sand.
Step 1:
Grab a baking tray and cover it with parchment paper—trust me, this makes clean-up a breeze.

Storing and Serving Suggestions

  • These treats taste best straight from the fridge, but you can let them hang out at room temp if that's more your style.
  • Got extras? Keep 'em sealed in the fridge—good for a week.
  • Handing them out? Drop them in a cute bag or a box, and you've got a simple gift everyone will love.

Extra Notes

  • No vanilla almond bark? White chocolate chips will work in a pinch for the coating.
  • Chill the balls before dipping, so they stay perfect when you coat them.
  • Want that cinnamon to shine? Go for 3 teaspoons instead of 2.

Well-known Chefs Share Their Tips

  • Jamie Oliver says dunking the truffles in cinnamon sugar before they get their coat gives extra snickerdoodle punch.
  • Martha Stewart thinks a tiny pinch of sea salt cuts through all that sweet for better balance.
  • Ina Garten likes a top-notch vanilla extract—it really makes flavors pop.

Why You'll Love Making This

  • Works for newbies—no baking, just mix and chill.
  • Creamy middle and cinnamon warmth in every bite.
  • Great for parties, holiday trays, or sharing with folks you care about.

Twists You Can Try

  • Sprinkle in a little nutmeg if you’re after deeper spice.
  • Swap in chocolate almond bark to change up the coating.
  • Roll the balls in crushed graham crackers or cinnamon sugar before they get dipped for crunch and extra flavor.

Difficulty: Easy

Cuisine: American

Yield: 36 Servings (36 truffles)

Dietary: Vegetarian

Ingredients

01 8 oz cream cheese, brought to room temperature.
02 1 package (14.3 oz) golden Oreo cookies, about 36 pieces.
03 2 tsp cinnamon, ground.
04 1 tsp vanilla flavoring.
05 16 oz white almond bark for coating.
06 Optional: Sprinkles for decoration.

Instructions

Step 01

Cover a baking tray with parchment paper, then place it aside for now.

Step 02

Use a food processor to grind the cookies into fine crumbs. Work in several rounds if needed.

Step 03

In a big bowl, mix together the cream cheese, cookie crumbs, cinnamon, and vanilla until smooth and combined.

Step 04

Roll the combined mixture into small 1-inch balls. Place them onto the lined tray.

Step 05

Put the tray in the fridge and chill the balls for at least an hour.

Step 06

Microwave the almond bark in short 30-second bursts, stirring between intervals until it's melted and smooth.

Step 07

Drop each ball into the melted bark, then use a fork or dipping tool to lift it out. Let the excess run off before putting it back on the tray.

Step 08

Sprinkle on toppings right away while the coating is still wet, if you'd like to add some sparkle.

Step 09

Let the coated truffles set in the fridge for another hour before serving or packing them up.

Notes

  1. Chill your truffle balls thoroughly before dipping to keep them from breaking apart.
