Oreo Truffles

Ok so this dessert is FAN-FREAKIN-TASTIC!! But it's also so rich that I can't eat more than 2 at any time. (And for me, that's saying something!) I got this from a friend who got it from Bakerella. Click here for the original recipe.

Here's what you'll need:

1 package oreo cookies (divided… use cookie including the cream center)
1 8oz. package cream cheese (softened)
white chocolate bark- if you don't know what I'm talking about, it's this stuff.

Finely crush 7 cookies in a food processor or place them in a ziploc bag and crush into a fine consistency. Set aside for later.

Crush remaining cookies (yes, the whole package of Oreos) and stir in softened cream cheese. I started to do this with a wooden spoon and gave up. For your sake, use an electric mixer.

Roll the mixture into 1″ balls and place on wax paper covered cookie sheet.

Melt chocolate as directed on the package and then dip balls into chocolate, tap off extra and set aside on wax paper covered cookie sheet to dry. Stick them in the fridge for a few minutes and then do a second coating of the chocolate.

Sprinkle the tops with the 7 crushed cookies for decoration.



Refrigerate for a few minutes, grab a large glass of milk and enjoy!

Makes about 36 truffles.

Sidenotes: These are also good dipped in regular milk chocolate bark. And for an extra twist, use mint Oreos.
