Football Shaped Oreo Truffles
These Football Shaped Oreo Truffles are perfect for Tailgating Parties, a Football Party or even just to snack on during the game. They are super easy to make and take only 4 ingredients. They are my go to for Super Bowl parties as well!
Are you hosting a Super Bowl party? Or maybe attending one with your family? I love to make these Oreo Truffle Footballs for any tail gate or football pot luck! They are really simple, but turn out so cute! If you want to personalize them with your team’s colors, you can use food coloring in the icing of the laces! Or add sprinkles- sprinkles are my favorite!
I first fell in love with how easy and delicious Oreo Truffles were when I made them last year for St. Patrick’s Day. The truffles are made with just 2 ingredients – Oreo cookies and cream cheese. And then coated with chocolate almond bark and the laces are added with Buttercream Frosting. When the boys were little they loved shaping the truffles into the football shape! Now that they are older, their job is to draw on the laces!
