-
8 ounces block-style cream cheese, softened

3 teaspoons cinnamon
For the Coating:
-
20 ounces Ghirardelli white chocolate wafers, divided and melted
-
2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, divided
Instructions
-
Prepare the Filling:
-
Using a food processor, crush the Golden Oreos into fine crumbs.
-
In a large bowl, mix the crushed Oreos with softened cream cheese and 3 teaspoons of cinnamon. Stir until the mixture is well combined and smooth.

-
Form the Truffles:
-
Scoop out small portions of the Oreo-cream cheese mixture (about 1 tablespoon per truffle) and roll them into balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Once all the truffles are formed, place the tray in the freezer for 30 minutes to firm up.
-
-
Prepare the Coating:
-
While the truffles are chilling, melt the white chocolate wafers according to the package instructions. Once melted, allow it to cool slightly.
-
In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon.

-
Coat the Truffles:
-
Dip each chilled truffle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Use a fork to lift the truffle out and allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
-
Roll the coated truffle in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until evenly coated.
-
-
Chill the Truffles:
-
Place the coated truffles back on the parchment-lined tray and refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes or until the chocolate has hardened.

Notes
-
For an extra touch, drizzle some additional melted white chocolate on top of the truffles before chilling.
- You can substitute the Golden Oreos with regular Oreos if desired, but Golden Oreos give a better flavor for the snickerdoodle theme.
