These clusters are the perfect treat for when you need a quick and satisfying dessert. With just six ingredients, you’ll be amazed at how easily you can whip up these little bites of heaven.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups plain Greek yogurt
• 2 cups Oreo cookies
• 1 cup white chocolate, melted
• 4 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Prep the Oreos: Place 2 cups of Oreo cookies into a bag and break them into large pieces. Set aside.
2. Mix the Base: In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, and sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy.
3. Fold in the Oreos: Gently fold in the crushed Oreo pieces, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
4. Form the Clusters: Using a spoon, separate the mixture into mounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
5. Freeze: Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least one hour until the clusters are frozen solid.

Tips for Success:

The best desserts are the ones that are easy to make, but taste like it’s been baking for hours! Today, I’ll be sharing with you a no-bake cheesecake recipe that is guaranteed to please your sweet tooth.

You heard right, no-bake cheesecake truffles. They are simple to make and hold well in the fridge for several days. But I doubt that they will last you longer than two days. Lol.

I decided to make them three different ways: Classic Strawberry, Oreo, and Chocolate Chip.

cheesecake truffles 3 ways 🙂

First things first, you’ll start with the base for the truffles. For the Oreo and chocolate chip truffles, you will make a plain base by mixing the cream cheese, butter, lime juice, vanilla extract and powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly and set in the fridge to chill.

For the strawberry truffles, you’ll make a delicious strawberry glaze by adding strawberries, sugar and water to a pot over medium heat. Once the strawberries start breaking down, mix with a hand mixer or blend until smooth and set it aside to cool.  Once the glaze is cooled to room temperature, swirl in 2 tbsp. of the strawberry glaze into the plain base to give it a nice tart and sweet taste in the end. Set the mixture in the fridge to cool for at least two hours.

While they are chilling in the fridge, you can go ahead and make the coating of your choice. I went with graham crackers, Oreos and chocolate chip cookies. (I used the mini versions of the Oreo cookies and chocolate chip because they are easier to manage and cheaper). Working in batches, one coating at a time, add to your food processor and pulse until you get a fine powder. Of course, during this part, I was eating the Oreo cookies before I could get them processed, lol. But thankfully I bought enough for me and this recipe. 🙂

Once everything is cooled, roll one tbsp. of the base into truffles and set on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This recipe should make 15-16 truffles. Return to the fridge one last time to set for 20 mins. Remove from the fridge, and roll each truffle in the coating of your choice! Don’t forget to make a mess like I did, it’s way more fun lol.

After you’ve got all your truffles coated, drizzle each with the topping your choice! For the classic strawberry, drizzle the top of each truffle with the strawberry glaze. For the Oreo, drizzle each truffle with melted white chocolate. And for the chocolate chip, drizzle each truffle with melted semi-sweet chocolate.

drizzled and ready

Now you can enjoy these little truffles and much as I have. Really simple, fool-proof recipe for all my cheesecake lovers out there! Drop a comment and let me know how you like them! Your input, as always, is greatly appreciated.
