Oreo Cream Cheese Truffles Faq’s
Yes, since they contain cream cheese, they need to be stored in the refrigerator.
These balls can be stored in the fridge up to 1 month but keep in mind the expiration day of cream cheese. They should be perfect until the expiration day of the cream cheese.
You can make them few days ahead.
Keep oreo cream cheese balls in airtight container
It seems like there is no proper ratio of cream cheese and crushed cookies, try adding more cream cheese to form a solid cookie ball.
