I figured if I'm going to call my blog Truffles and Threads, I should probably learn how to make truffles. So...
What you'll need:
1 package of Oreos
1 (8 oz.) package of Philadelphia Cream Cheese
2 packages of chocolate chips
1 package of white chocolate chips (optional)
1. Empty package of Oreos into large bowl. I used generic Kid O's cause they were less expensive...and I can't really taste the difference...
2. Crush Oreos. The end of a wooden spatula worked pretty well!
3. Add entire package of cream cheese to Oreos and continue crushing mixture into fine crumbs.
4. Roll cookie mixture into little ping pong sized balls.
5. Melt chocolate chips and dip the balls in the chocolate so that they are completely covered. Place them on waxed paper baking sheet.
6. Melt white chocolate chips. If you have a piping bag, fill it with the melted white chocolate chips. Or you can just use a Ziploc bag and cut the tip of one of the corners. A little more messy, but does the job!
7. Spread white chocolate over truffles and refrigerate for at least one hour, or until firm.
Enjoy!
