Instructions
Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside.
Place Oreos in a food processor and pulse until crumbled into fine bits.
Fold cream cheese and Oreo crumbs together in a large bowl.
Roll Oreo and cream cheese mixture into spheres, about 1 ½ inches in diameter. Place each one on lined baking sheet.
Use the back of a rounded teaspoon to press an indent in the center of each Oreo truffle.
Press along the edge of each truffle, to shape it into a nest. The center cavity/indentation should be about 1 inch in diameter.
Chill truffles in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Once the time is up, remove truffles from the fridge.
Microwave candy melts in 30-second intervals until completely melted.
Scoop melted candy into the cavity of each Oreo truffle.
Top the truffles off with 2-3 candy eggs each.
Chill for an additional 10 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
