Oreo Truffles

Balls of Oreo cream cheese filling, dipped in chocolate.

I'm not even sure where I first got this recipe, but these are really simple and dangerously delicious

 Only 3 ingredients:

• 1 package of Oreos (original, not double stuffed)
• 1 8 oz. package of cream cheese, softened
• 2 C semi-sweet chocolate chips

 1.  Crush the Oreos in a gallon-sized plastic bag. 

I like to crush the Oreos with a butternut squash.  It makes the truffles healthier?

2.  Mix in the cream cheese.

You should probably taste the mixture at this point. Mmmmm

 3.  Form balls out of the Oreo cream cheese mixture.  I like to use a cookie scooper to make them all the same size, and then roll them in my hands to make them round and smooth.

4.  Chill the balls in the freezer for 30 minutes, until they're hard enough that they won't fall apart when being dipped in the chocolate.

5.  Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave (stir every 30 seconds), and dip each of the balls individually.

6.  Before the chocolate hardens you can decorate them with sprinkles, a white chocolate drizzle, or crushed Oreos, and store them in the fridge.

Valentine's sprinkles!
