Ingredients for No Bake Pistachio Oreo Cookie Truffles
Pistachio Oreo Cookie Truffles recipe – Makes 28 Pistachio Oreo Cookie Truffles
- 36 Golden Oreos (one 14.3 oz package)
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup pistachio butter or pistachio paste
- 2 ½ cups chopped white chocolate or melting wafers
- 1 teaspoon oil, coconut, canola or vegetable
- Chopped Pistachios to sprinkle on tops
Instructions How to Make No Bake Pistachio Chocolate Truffles
- Add the golden Oreos to a food processor until you get cookie crumbs. If you don’t have a food processor, place cookies in a resealable plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
- Add in the cream cheese and pistachio butter/paste and pulse until the mixture is evenly blended and smooth.
- Using a small 1 tablespoon scoop, scoop about 1 tablespoon of the truffle mixture and scoop onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. You can also roll the balls by hand. Chill in the refrigerator or freezer until hardened, about 20 minutes or so.
- Melt the chocolate and oil in a medium bowl in the microwave in 30-second increments, making sure to stir in between each time.
- Dip the Oreo balls in the melted chocolate and roll it around to coat with a fork or a chocolate dipping tool then pull it out. Dip a few Oreo balls from the freezer at a time to keep them solid before dipping them in the white chocolate coating.
- Gently shake off the excess chocolate and place the pistachio Oreo truffles back on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with some crushed up pistachios, or sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet, or drizzle with more melted chocolate and chill in the fridge for at least 10 minutes to set again, and serve.

What’s the Difference Between Pistachio Butter and Pistachio Paste?
- Pistachio paste is more smoother and more concentrated like a melty chocolate consistency often made with 100% pistachios, with no added oils, sugars, or other additives.
- Pistachio butter has a more natural, thicker, more spreadable texture, with some larger particle sizes, but still creamy, somewhat like peanut butter and can be made with just pistachios, but may also include added oils, sugars, or other flavorings.
Storing Pistachio Truffles
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 weeks. If you leave them on the counter, the chocolate will get soft. They should be chilled until ready to serve.
More Variations
- Instead of golden Oreos, go for a chocolate pistachio Oreo truffle vibe using Oreos instead.
- Top with a drizzle of a contrasting color of confectioners coating using light green candy melts, dark chocolate or even a sprinkle of sea salt!
- You can add some vanilla to your truffles if you want some vanilla flavoring.
In conclusion, these pistachio cookie truffles are a delicious treat that can be enjoyed by anyone for any occasion. From their creamy texture to their irresistible pistachio flavor, these fun and unique truffles are the perfect sweet indulgence everyone will enjoy!
