Oreo truffles

oreos10

It’s no secret that I love cooking and baking. Unfortunately, I can’t have most of the baking treats I cook due to the added sugar. Stephen doesn’t eat a lot of sweets either, so I’m sending batches of stuff to my friends at school. Several people wanted to know how I made these Oreo truffles.

Basic recipe:

1lb bag of oreos

1 8oz package of cream cheese, room temperature

1 bag of milk chocolate chips

1 cup of white chocolate chips

Grind cookies into a fine powder     Mix in cream cheese on low speed

** I do not have a double boiler. I boil water in a small saucepan and put my glass bowl of chocolate on top of 1 quart saucepan. It melts the chocolate without burning it.

**** I tried dipping with a fork, but the balls kept falling apart. For the second batch, I used a small spoon to roll around and scoop up quick. A friend from school put toothpicks in hers before she froze them. I think that would work much better next time.

I like to make these too. I usually just melt a little bit of chocolate at a time in the microwave. Works for me.
