These Spooky Eyeball Truffles are a delicious kid-friendly Halloween treat that is easy to make and fun to eat!
When I got these adorable gummy eyeballs, I knew immediately what I wanted to do with them. Oreo truffles with eyeballs on top. Eyeball truffles. Spooky eyeball truffles. Because…how fun is that??
They’re just a little spooky, but more fun and silly than anything. Kids love fun and silly. Especially for Halloween. And they are so easy to make!! If you needed a last-minute treat, you could realistically throw these together in half an hour, and that’s with the time to firm up the truffles and the coating!
How do you make Spooky Eyeball Truffles?
-Crush the oreos cookies.
-Mix with softened cream cheese.
-Form into balls and freeze for 10 minutes.

Spooky Eyeball Truffles
Ingredients
- 25 Oreos (or other chocolate sandwich cookies)
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups white chocolate bark
- 2 pkgs Gummy Eyeballs (there are 12 per package, you will have a few leftover)
Instructions
- Place oreos in a blender or food processor and pulse into crumbs.
- Add to a medium mixing bowl with the softened cream cheese and mix with a hand mixer until well-combined.
- Use a medium cookie scoop or tablespoon to scoop even amounts of oreo mixture out, and roll into balls in your hands. Place on a wax-paper lined plate or cookie sheet. Repeat until all the mixture is used. You will have 16-18 truffles depending on size. Place truffles in fridge for about 15 minutes (or freezer for about 5-7 minutes)
- Melt the white chocolate bark in a cup or measuring cup that is deep enough for easier dipping. (Standard melting instructions are 60 seconds on 50% power, stir, and then heat at 50% power in 30 second increments until melted, stirring each time.)
- Once melted, remove the truffles from the fridge or freezer, drop them into the melted chocolate one at a time and use a fork to scoop out, tapping the fork on the edge of the container to remove excess chocolate and smooth the surface. Place back on your wax paper covered plate, using a toothpick to help scoot it off the fork if necessary. Press a gummy eyeball into the top of the truffle immediately. Repeat until all truffles are made.
- Place truffles in the fridge for about 10 minutes or so, until the chocolate sets. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
My son would go bonkers over these. He loves these, and having the Halloween eyeballs on top makes it so much fun. You’re so creative!
The kids are going to think these are perfectly spooky and a little gross. They will LOVE the taste too!
