Recipe: Oreo Truffles


Oreo truffles are a new find we have in our house and LOVE. Very few can resist the allure of the dark chocolate cookie and the double stuff! So... how on earth could you make it better... a truffle of course. They're easy and delicious!

What you need:

~ One package Oreo's (original or double stuffed)
~ One 8 oz. package cream cheese, softened
~ Powdered (or confectioners) sugar, 1/2 cup
~ Cookie Sheet
~ wax paper
~ large (gallon size) Ziploc bag
~ meat tenderizer, wooden spoon, or rolling pin
~ electric mixer is a huge help, but regular mixers should work as well

What you do:

~ Take your package of Oreo's and empty into your large gallon-size ziploc bag. Crush. You can do in food processor as well, but lets face it, it isn't as much fun! Crush completely until Oreo's are fine, and no large chunks are visible.

~ In electric mixer, with paddle attachment, combine crushed Oreo's and cream cheese. Slowly add powdered sugar one tablespoon at a time until consistency is reached where the Oreo mixture will stay in a solid ball and not flatten out, if using double stuffed Oreo's you'll need more sugar.

~ Roll mixture into tablespoon sized balls and place onto wax paper on your cookie sheet. Continue until mixture gone. Refrigerate until your ready to eat, they could melt!

ENJOY!
