Oreo Truffles


Oreo Truffles...quite possibly the most addictive dessert.  When I first heard of these truffles, I did not get excited about them.  I don't go crazy over Oreos or white chocolate.  I figured Oreo truffles would not be my thing.  I was wrong.  They are delicious.


My brother and sister in law make a ton of these at Christmas each year.  I overdose on them every year.  A few weeks ago, I saw a picture on Pinterest showing the truffles decorated to look like Easter bunnies.  I thought I would give it a try.


Not as easy at it looks.  My Easter bunnies look more like melting scotty dogs.  oh well, I tried.  They still tasted good.  I'll tell you about the cake in a later post.



Ingredients:
1 package Oreo cookies
1 package cream cheese
White chocolate to melt

Directions:
1.  place the whole package of oreo cookies into a food processor.  Process until cookies are in fine crumbs.

2.  move cookies crumbs into mixing bowl.  Mix well with softened cream cheese.
3.  Roll into small balls.


4.  Melt white chocolate in a double boiler (or your preferred method).
5.  Dip each truffle ball into melted chocolate and cover.  Place on wax paper.
(If the balls seem too soft, place in the freezer for 20 minutes)

Yay!!! We found out this past year that if you use the Wilton white chocolate disks it is 100 times easier. Just melt them in the microwave - they coat really well. It completely changed the recipe for us. Loved the bunnies! Miss ya'll ~~Heather
