Oreo Truffle robins eggs

Pretty speckled blue eggs that are delicious and deceptively easy to make Oreo truffles.

Whip these whimsical treats up in no time, they require no baking and are perfect for a spring centerpiece or a fun Easter treat.

They would look just as lovely in pink, yellow or plain white chocolate as they do in this pastel blue hue.

The finished eggs can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Ingredients to make blue speckled eggs makes around 16 eggs

300g Oreo Cookies (approx 10 5/6oz) or around 28 cookies
150g (approx 5 oz) Cream Cheese at room temperature
Blue candy melts *
White candy melts *
Dark Chocolate
Copha or Paramount crystals *
Toothpicks
Clean brush/ toothbrush

Candy Melts can be found at hobby or craft stores like Michaels, Hobby Lobby or Spotlight or many cake decorating stores. In the US you can find paramount crystals at craft stores and cake decorating stores.

Step 1: Make the oreo truffles and shape the eggs

In a food processor or blender mix together the Oreo Cookies and the cream cheese until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Line a tray with parchment paper. Take around 3 teaspoons of the cake pop mixture and roll it between your palms to make a smooth ball, then using your fingers and palms turn the ball into an egg/oval shape. I find that shaping the mixture into the ball first makes it easier to get a smooth finish.

Place the egg  shaped truffles on the tray in fridge to chill until firm
