Why are my Oreo balls falling apart? ›

If you find your chocolate is still too thick, add another 1/4 teaspoon of oil. Oreo balls are falling apart: The chocolate is too hot. Let the chocolate sit for a few minutes to slightly cool down and then try again.

If your oreo balls become oily, it may be because they have been left out at room temperature for too long, allowing the oils from the cream cheese to seep out. Simply put them back in the refrigerator or freezer to cool for a few minutes.

Make sure you store the Oreo balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator. If you leave them on the counter, the chocolate will get soft. You want to make sure they are chilled until ready to serve. The Oreo balls will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.

Because Oreo balls are kept cold in the fridge, they last for 2-3 weeks in an airtight container. If you want to get a jumpstart on holiday baking, you can make these 3 months in advance and freeze them. Thaw in the fridge overnight before serving.

Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. To prevent the chocolate sweating, do not store in the fridge or freezer – however this means that the filling will be soft.

Crème filling contains small bits of Oreo cookie wafer.

Although the amount of time to perfection depends on preferred sogginess levels and milk fat content, the Utah researchers determined that 3 seconds was enough to thoroughly saturate the Oreo without losing structural integrity.

Keep in mind that the finer the crumb, the better the crust will hold its shape. You should get about 2 cups of crumbs (packed), or about 250g. Stir in the melted butter, and then press the mixture tightly into a pie dish.

I really recommend using a food processor to crush your Oreos if you have one. If you don't, you can place the cookies in a Ziploc bag and crush them with a rolling pin or mallet. Make sure the cookies are finely crushed for the best results.

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends all foods that should generally be refrigerated spend no more than two hours out of refrigeration before you use them, and that includes cream cheese.

What happens when you freeze an Oreo? ›

Frozen Oreos offer a slightly different experience than their room-temperature counterparts: Texture: The cookie part becomes a bit snappier, and the cream filling gets firmer. Flavor: The overall flavor remains the same – delicious!

These truffles need to be frozen briefly (15 minutes) before dipping. I've found that if you freeze them much longer than that the chocolate tends to crack and break away from the Oreo ball interior as it sets (a problem I've also noticed with my cake pops!).

These Oreo truffles can be shipped, but it does require some extra materials. Most bakers who ship their treats prefer to use a cooler lined with ice packs, which is then placed in a cushioned/lined shipping box.

You may have used double stuffed Oreo cookies, which will make the mixture too sticky. Also, too much cream cheese can also do this. Be sure to use regular Oreos and measure ingredients correctly.

If you choose to do it by hand, make sure to get the oreos smashed into fine pieces. Big chunks of oreo can make the crust too crumbly.
