The other day my husband came home from work and told me that his job was having a potluck lunch and that he was in charge of bringing some kind of yummy treat. As soon as he told me I knew I wanted to make these easy yet sssoooo yummy Oreo Truffles.
What You Need:
1 package Oreo cookies (use cookie including the cream center)
1 8oz. package cream cheese (room temperature)
chocolate bark or coating
A pretty colored chocolate (optional)
1. Finely crush cookies in a food processor or place them in a Ziploc bag and use a rolling pin.
2. Stir in softened cream cheese. Use the back of a large spoon to help mash the two together.
3. Roll out 1″ balls or use a small ice cream scoop (which I used....makes every ball the same size, so much easier) and place on cookie sheet covered with wax paper.
4. My husband really wanted these on lollipop sticks. He was worried about people touching all of them if they weren't. So before you pop these in the freezer just add (if you want) some lollipop sticks to each one.
5. While the pops were freezing I printed out the emblem for my husbands work, placed that under a piece of wax paper and with my pretty blue colored chocolate traced my picture to make cute decorations for the truffles
6. After that you want to melt your chocolate as directed on the package. Pull truffles out of freezer and then dip them into chocolate, tap off extra and set aside on wax paper to dry.
7. Now the fun part, decorate your treats. You can use more chocolate, sprinkles, extra cookie crumbs, What ever you can think of.
I made a couple batches for my husbands work. The ones on the green board are made with Mint Oreos and the ones on the white are just regular.....both are equally good!!!!
One batch makes about 35 truffles. ENJOY!!!
