How about some Oreo Nutella Bat Truffles for this Halloween season? You guys know how much I love me some Oreo Truffles so why not spice them up and be creative for Halloween. They were so fun to do and the kids will go crazy over them!

These adorable Oreo Treats would be great for Halloween school parties, your own Halloween party, sporting events, or just because snacks. Be sure to check out the other Oreo Halloween Truffles I have on my blog: Oreo Apple Pie Mummy Truffles, Oreo Red Velvet Eye Balls, and Oreo Pumpkin Pie Spice Pumpkin Truffles.

How To Make Oreo Nutella Bat Truffles

First, gather all your ingredients. You will only need 6 ingredients unless you swap out the chocolate chips and coconut oil for melting chocolate, then you will only need 5 ingredients which is even less. Even better in my opinion!

20 Oreos Cookies
5 tablespoons Nutella
36 edible eyes
18 THIN Oreos cookies
White Melting Chocolate (I like using Candiquik) OR 1 package of White Chocolate Chips & 2 teaspoons of coconut oil
Parchment paper or silicone baking mat

Next, separate the THIN Oreos, remove the cream (my kids love this part), and then break the cookies in half. Set the cookie halves aside.

Place regular Oreos and Nutella in a food processor. Process until a smooth mixture remains and a ball starts to form while the processor is running.

Using a melon baller, small cookie scoop, or a tablespoon, form the mixture into balls of equal size and place onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Freeze for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.

DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP! You do not want to dip the Oreo Truffles while they are still warm. They will be super hard to work with and you will end up having Oreo Truffle mixture all in your chocolate which you do not want.

Once the Oreo balls are frozen, if you are using melting chocolate like Candiquik, follow the directions on the package to melt the chocolate. If you are using chocolate chips place them in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave the milk chocolate chips in 15-second intervals until melted and smooth. Mix coconut oil into the milk chocolate. Adding the coconut oil to the chocolate chips will help thin out the chocolate making it easier for you to dip the Truffles.

Using a fork or candy tool, dip one Oreo ball in the chocolate. Use a spoon and pour the melting chocolate over the top to make sure it is completely coated, then tap the fork or candy tool on the edge of the bowl to drain the excess chocolate. If using a fork, gently push the truffle ball off of the fork with a toothpick onto parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. If using the candy tool, immediately flip the truffle ball onto the parchment paper or silicone baking mat.

NOTE: When you dip the balls the Oreos can leave some crumbs in the coating. To solve this Oreo crumb mess, you can divide the coating in half into two bowls. Dip the Oreo balls in the first bowl and if some crumbs get in the coating dip it a second time but in the second bowl with no crumb in the coating.

Transfer the truffle back to the baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Immediately press half of 1 THIN Oreo cookie into each side of the truffle for the bat wings. Then press and hold two edible eyes onto the truffle. Repeat until you are finished. Chill to set.

Store in refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Tips & Tricks:

Now if you do not want to do Nutella Oreo Truffles you can you can use any Oreo cookie you want. If you decide to use regular Oreos instead of Nutella you will use cream cheese to replace the Nutella. You will use 1 package of Oreo Cookies and 8 ounces of cream cheese. If you decide to use any of the “special edition” Oreos (which are usually smaller packages than the regular Oreos) they will require less cream cheese. So if you want to use the “special edition” Oreos you can and but only use 6 ounces of the cream cheese.
When you dip the balls the Oreos can leave some crumbs in the coating. To solve this Oreo crumb mess, you can divide the coating in half into two bowls. Dip the Oreo balls in the first bowl and if some crumbs get in the coating dip it a second time but in the second bowl with no crumb in the coating.
Some of my favorite gadgets to bake with are the Solula Professional 18/8 Stainless Steel Medium Cookie Scoop I got from Amazon. I also love the LARGE baking pan I got from my favorite store Target Wilton Ultra Bake Professional. Lastly, I love using Amazon Basics Silicone Baking Mat instead of parchment paper. They are super easy to clean and they fit perfectly in your baking pan.
A quick tip is to use a good quality chocolate. Trust me, it will make your cookie taste that much better. My favorite go-to chocolate chips are Ghirardelli Chocolate Chips. They are seriously the best chocolate chips.
