Oreo Balls (or Oreo Cookie Truffle)

Truffles.jpg

(from a friends blog...)


Ingredients:
1 pkg of Oreos
1 8oz pkg of cream cheese
6-8 squares of Almond Bark melting chocolate (can be found by the chocolate chips in the grocery store)
1/2 cup of white chocolate chips
parchment paper

Directions:
Crumble all oreo cookies (including filling) in a food processor or a blender.  Put into a mixing bowl and with your hands mush in the cream cheese.  Mix until you have a chocolate past (it will be thick).  Roll into 1 inch balls and place on parchment paper on a cookie sheet.  Should make around 36 balls.  After they are all rolled out, stick them in the freezer while you melt the chocolate.  If you use the microwave to melt, melt 2-3 squares at a time and follow package instructions on how to melt.  

Using a spoon, place balls into chocolate and coat, then place back onto cookie sheet.  After all the chocolate coating has dried, melt the white chocolate chips and drizzle onto balls.  (I think that using a fork would work better than a spoon when it comes to drizzling).  They taste better when they are cold, so just stick them into the fridge once all the chocolate is dried.
