Oreo Truffles Recipe

Another fun, roll-up-your-sleeves and get messy recipe.

Makes 40 or so truffles
Total Time: 30 minutes

• 1 package Oreo cookies, finely crushed1 packge cream cheese (8 ounces)
• 1 bag semisweet chocolate chips (12 ounces)

1. Mix most of the Oreo cookie crumbs and cream cheese together (save a few crumbs to sprinkle on top). A mixer is a huge help, but kids can use their clean hands for more fun. Roll into 1 inch balls.

2. While the kids are mushing and rolling, melt the chocolate in a double boiler or in the microwave.

3. Dip the balls in the chocolate. You can use a spoon to roll them around and fish them out.

4. Put the truffles on wax or parchment-lined cookie sheets and sprinkle with the reserved cookie crumbs. Refrigerate for at least an hour.
