Line your work surface with parchment and place on a plate or cutting board that will fit in the fridge/freezer.
Using a food processor, grind the Golden Oreos into a fine crumb.
Place the crumbs in a medium bowl and combine with the softened cream cheese. Mix until combined.
Scoop out a heaping tablespoon’s worth of the dough and roll into a round ball. Place on the parchment and repeat until all the dough is used up.
Chill the rolled dough in the fridge/freezer for about 20 minutes.
Melt the green candy melts in a microwave safe bowl, heating in 30 second increments and stirring well between each interval.
Using a spoon, dip each chilled dough ball in the green candy melts and coat. Scoop out the ball and tap off the excess candy melt on the side of the bowl. Transfer the truffle ball to the parchment again and use the tip of the spoon to cover up any areas that appear thin or where the spoon left an indent. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Once all the truffles have been dipped, transfer the remaining candy melt to a piping bag. Cut off a small hole in the end and quickly drizzle over the top of the truffles.
Place a single large red heart sprinkle on top of each truffle.
Notes
For a smoother coating, let the truffles sit for a minute after dipping.Nutritional information is an estimate and may vary.
