Wednesday: Mid Week Ramblings–Best Thing Ever
I recently learned from my aunt how to make the BEST Oreo Truffles ever. When I found out that all I needed was a box of Oreos, a bag of chocolate chips and a package of cream cheese, I had to give it a try. These really do taste heavenly and they are so incredibly easy to make too.
Step 1:
Grind up one whole package of Oreos in your blender/food processor/hand chopper. Save about 1 cup of ground-up Oreos and put it to the side.
Step 2:
Add one 8 oz package of cream cheese (at room temperature) to the remaining ground-up Oreos and combine well, then form them into 1 inch balls (about golf ball size).
Step 3:
Melt one package of chocolate chips (whichever is your favorite – milk, semi-sweet, dark chocolate) on a double broiler or very carefully in a microwave. Dip the balls into the melted chocolate and coat well, then place them on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper.
Step 4:
Take the cup of ground up Oreos and sprinkle the extra Oreo crumbs all over the truffles. Let them sit in the fridge until the chocolate sets (mine only took 20 minutes). Enjoy!

I make something similar, I think. The only difference is that I use mint oreos and chuck all of them into the food processor, cream and all. The cream makes it moist enough to form into balls w/o the extra cream cheese.
They’re AMAZING and so fun at the holidays!
Those look DEEEEE-licious!
I felt my hips expand as I read about your truffles. Enjoy for me.
I think I’m going to add these to my cookie plate.
It occurs to me that these might be even better with Peanut Butter oreos!
Oreos and chocolate and cream cheese, I am in heaven
