Oreo Truffles



Well, today I made my first batch of Oreo Truffles. OH MY GOODNESS!  These decadent, rich treats are so addicting, you can't have just one.  I did one package of cookies with cream cheese and it rolled out 58 balls.  I then dipped half in vanilla almond bark and the other half in chocolate.  Placed them back in the freezer till ready for a treat and oh man YUM!  This is a recipe to keep forever I'm afraid.  It has been very hard to keep the boys out of the freezer.  I was so worried that the coating would take away from the cookie flavor but not happening.  You get a crunch of frozen chocolate in your mouth then a creamy blast of oreo and you can't even tell that there is cream cheese binding it all together.  Dan has yet to try one because it has cream cheese in it (lactose allergy) but if he would, I know for sure he would love them like the rest of us.  I am going to try to get him to eat half of one tonight just so he knows what I'm selling and really don't think it will hurt him any since the cookie ratio is much larger than the cheese ratio. We will see.  I am thinking about saving the rest for our church dessert auction on April 3rd so others can see how yummy they are.  But I might show up at Wickmans, Dans work, with them and pass them out for some business publicity.  Not sure yet.  One way or another, these little 2 bite goodies will be ate by someone that loves sweet treats. :)

  1. Those look fantastic, and I should know! I’ve seen some really awful truffles in my day. In fact, nobody knows the truffles I've seen...
