Step-by-Step Instructions for Lemon Oreo Truffles
- Start by placing the Lemon Oreo cookies in a food processor; pulse them until they become fine crumbs, resembling sand.
- In the bowl with your crushed Lemon Oreos, add softened cream cheese and the optional lemon zest for an extra citrus punch. Using a hand mixer, beat the mixture on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes until completely smooth and free of lumps.
- Using a tablespoon, scoop out the mixture and roll it into balls about 1 inch in diameter, placing them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Once your truffles are shaped, pop the baking sheet into the freezer for at least 30 minutes.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, place your white candy melts and heat them in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted and smooth.
- Once the candy melts are ready, take each chilled truffle and dip it into the melted candy, using a fork for easy handling.
- For a finishing touch, melt any remaining candy melts and drizzle it over the coated truffles.
- Finally, place the baking sheet with the decorated truffles in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes to set the coating.

Notes
Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature and don't skip the chilling step to hold shapes during dipping.
