hey everyone's it's James from Fun foods and
today i'm gonna show you how to make
these Oreo truffles that look like
either christmas ornaments or snowmen so
keep watching and I'll show you
step-by-step how to make these now the
first thing you wanna do is start with
the package oreo cookies what I have
here is a family pack so i'm not going
to use all of this it's a little larger
than regular package but you just use
regular package use the whole package it
works fine
it's going to be about 30 oreo cookies
total just put them in your food
processor
now if you don't have a food processor
what you can do is put in a large bag a
large plastic bag and you something
heavy and just smash them down so this
isn't necessary but it makes my life a
little easier to put the lid on here
turn it on and i'm just going to pulse
it until I get them into real fine bits
but it's pretty good
next I have is one 8-ounce package of
cream cheese this has been softened at
room temperature so it's nice and soft
I've just cut it in half so it'll be
easier to fit in my food processor and
you can do this separately but I'm
making it easy and only gonna have one
thing to clean up so food processor and
just pop the lid back on here and pulse
again
next we're going to do is scoop little
balls out is gonna roll them into balls
but um I'm take about an inch worth pop
it out my hand here and then rolled into
a ball shape place it on a baking sheet
with baking paper this is actually wax
paper you can use any kind of paper you
like long as it doesn't stick to it now
this recipe made about 20 of these now
it's going to depend on the size that
you roll onto but made about 20 so now
i'm just going to take these put these
in the freezer for about a half-hour to
get them nice and hard
so now our Oreo balls have been in the
freezer for about a half hour they're
nice and chilled in there nice and solid
so this is what we're looking for now
melted down some white candy melts or
use white chocolate whichever you prefer
and now that that's melted down i'm just
going to take these and dip it in the
white chocolate tap it down really good
and then you can just take it and put it
on some wax paper for it to harden up
now just put these in the refrigerator
to speed up the process a bit but you
can just leave them on the counter and
they will harden up quite nicely just
pull them apart and I like to clean up
around the bottom a little bit just with
a butter knife is fine so it's nice
around now I'm gonna decorate these a
little bit by putting on a cap now how
do i do that i have these reeses minis
and let's go grab something to put on
here take them from upside-down I've
melted down some chocolate and I'm gonna
put it right there in the middle there
is a lot to and then pop my little
reeses many right on top there when
that's done you can decorate the face
the Snowman that you do is a couple
different ways you can cut a small hole
on your baggy um I'm not doing that I
have a pretty large hole right there so
I just squirted some out on the counter
and I'm just taking a toothpick the back
with two thick and i want to draw the
eyeballs will put one eyeball there
my ball there
and i'll come back and do the nose in a
minute that's gonna be a different color
and we will put a dot for smiley face
another dot probably four or five dots
for smiley face we will come back later and
do the nose so now what I've done was I
melted down some orange candy melts and
i'm going to draw the nose on each of
these just a little dot or line do a
little line there right on his face and
that's it that's what they look like now
we're going to move on to the ornaments
okay so we pulled out our remaining oreo
balls here and we're going to give them
ten different color candy melts so I
have red green and yellow you can use
whatever colors you'd like and let's
pick one here pop that in
shake off the excess place it on the
other paper
now you take these you can put it in the
refrigerator just so they can harden up
a little bit about 10 minutes and after
they come out of the refrigerator just
take it and clean up around the edges
now decorate you can use these reeses
minis to look like the top of an
ornament sort of like that and I've just
melted down some chocolate you can use
the same color chocolate as you have on
there I'm just going to use chocolate
just to make it easier
don't have to melt a whole bunch of
different colors still and place it
right on top push it down and let it set
up next what i have here are these pull
and peel twizzlers and what I've done
was fold them up have left him this way
for a little while so that hopefully
they will stay put do quite a bit of
them so I'm gonna put a little good
amount on the bottom of that and hold it
in place
you may have to hold it there for until
it firms up completely and just do that
with the rest up okay Sam outside for
the taste test and i am going to eat
this red ornament now this one is a
completely decorated doesn't have the
stem on there but it'll still taste just
as good trust me
mmm chocolate with the Orioles and
they're easy to make
