Oreo Truffles

By SD296

Ingredients

• 1 package (1 lb. 2 oz.) Oreo cookies, finely crushed, divided
• 1 package (8 oz.) Philadelphia cream cheese, softened
• 2 packages (8 squares each) Baker's semi-sweet chocolate, melted

Preparation

Step 1

Mix 3 cups of the cookie crumbs and the cream cheese until well blended.

Shape into 42 (1-inch) balls.

*Dip balls in melted chocolate; place on waxed paper-covered baking sheet. Sprinkle with remaining cookie crumbs.

Refrigerate 1 hour or until firm. Store any leftover truffles in tightly covered container in refrigerator.

*To easily coat truffles with the melted chocolate, add truffles, in batches, to bowl of melted chocolate. Then use two forks to roll truffles in chocolate until evenly coated. Remove the truffles with forks and allow excess chocolate to drip back into bowl before placing truffles on prepared baking sheet.
