Are you looking for game-day ideas? Check out some of my other football party ideas…
Here’s the step-by-step:
You’ll Need:
- 1/2 box of Oreo Cookies (about 24 cookies)
- 3 oz. of cream cheese
- Brown chocolate melts – Wilton is my preferred
- White Chocolate melts – again – Wilton
- A chocolate squeeze bottle
For Cupcakes: (optional)
- Green Frosting
- Pastry bag filled with green frosting with a small opening star tip – I used a #16
- Cupcakes
How do you Make Football Oreo Truffles?
- Using a heavy-duty mixer, mix the Oreo cookies and cream cheese until a thick paste is formed that looks like the above picture
- Mold that Oreo paste into little football shapes and place them on waxed paper that is resting on a plate or cookie sheet – my footballs are about 1&1/2 inches
- Pop those in the freezer
- Meanwhile, melt your brown chocolate into a bowl using the instruction on the bag
- Roll the frozen Oreo Footballs into the brown melted chocolate, place them back on the wax paper
- Pop back into the freezer
- Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate melts, and pour the white chocolate into your squeeze bottle
- Grab your footballs out of the freezer, and using your white chocolate, draw the stitches and the two little curved lines onto the footballs
To make cupcakes:
- Decorate the cupcake using your star tip and green frosting. Go all the way around the outer circumference holding your pastry bag down, pushing a little frosting, and pulling the tip up and away from the frosting you pushed out to give the little points. Fill in the rest of the cupcake the same way
