Oreo Truffles


No, I'm not kidding. Yes, they are as good as they sound. And yes, they go straight to your hips/butt/belly. But, you can eat one and then run around the block. See...no harm done! (Just don't come crying to me when you gained five pounds because you couldn't stop at just one!) These are from Mel's Kitchen Cafe.

Oreo Truffles

1 package (18 oz.) Oreo cookies, crushed into small pieces
1 8 oz. package cream cheese, softened
1 package Almond Bark
Chocolate chips for drizzling or sprinkles for decoration

Mix crushed Oreos and cream cheese until well-combined. (Use your hands - it mixes best this way - plus clean up is yummy!)
Roll into 1 inch balls and place on a baking sheet or tray. Refrigerate until firm - 3-4 hours (Or freeze for about 1 hour.) After licking your hands clean, run around the block while the truffles chill. ;-)
Melt white Almond Bark according to package directions. Dip truffles in almond bark and put on wax paper to harden.
If using sprinkles, use them right away - the almond bark hardens quickly. Alternately, melt chocolate with a little bit of shortening and drizzle over truffles.
Chill truffles in the fridge - they taste best cold!
