Ingredients

- 1 package of Oreo cookies

- 8 oz brick of cream cheese, room temperature

- Almond Bark or candy melts (I used almond bark)

- Optional sprinkles

- Mold to shape truffles

Method ::

- Wash your filthy hands

- Melt almond bark or candy melts and pour into mold, making sure to get an even layer all the way up the sides to make a shell. Stick in the freezer to chill.

- Using a blender or food processor, pulse Oreos into fine crumbs. If you’re feeling adventurous or frustrated you can put them in a ziplock bag and beat them with a rolling pin. It’s up to you.

- Transfer cookie powder into a bowl and add the brick of cream cheese.

- Mix cookies and cream cheese together, hands work best a spoon will get you nowhere.

- Once the mixture is evenly mixed, remove the mold from the freezer and press it into the formed shell.

- Put in the freezer to chill for 45 minutes.

- Remove from freezer

- Heat more candy melts or almond bark and pour it into the molds over the mixture. Make sure to tap the mold against a counter to get rid of any air bubbles.

- Put back in the freezer until hard.

- Carefully remove from molds.

Alternatively, you can put the cookie mixture into the mold, freeze it for an hour and then dip them into melted candy melts/almond bark.

If you want the truffles without the extra hassle, form the cookie mixture into balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet, freeze until hard and then dip into almond bark or candy melts and decorate with sprinkles.
