Oreo Truffles

Okay so this isn't what's for dinner but it is definitely what's for dessert!!!


1 pkg. Oreos (NOT double stuff)
1 8oz. pkg. cream cheese (I use fat free---less guilt)
Dipping chocolate (I used white but you can choose any color of Wilton candy melts)
sucker sticks (optional)
Sprinkles (optional)


In a large ziplock bag crush Oreos with a rolling pin until completely crumbs.


If there are large broken pieces of cookie it's harder to roll in a ball.


Mix cookie crumbs with cream cheese until it's crumbly paste.


I use a small cookie scoop to measure but you can make them any size you like.


Roll individual balls of the Oreo mixture and place on a lined cookie sheet. Put sucker sticks in if you want to make cookie pops. Chill in the fridge for 1 hour.


Melt dipping chocolate in the microwave or double boiler. Dip the Oreo balls in the chocolate and place back on the cookie sheet, decorate with sprinkles and let them harden (in the fridge).



Makes aprox. 2 1/2 dozen depending on the size.

Variation: try mint Oreo cookies, white chocolate and red sprinkles--great at Christmas!
