Oreo Truffles

  • 1 pound Oreo cookies
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pound milk chocolate
  • 1/2 pound white chocolate

Using a food processor, grind the cookies to a fine powder.

With a mixer, blend cookie powder, cream cheese and vanilla extract until thoroughly mixed (there should be no white traces of cream cheese).

Roll into small balls and place on wax-lined cookie sheet and refrigerate for 45 minutes.

Line two cookie sheets with wax paper.

In double-boiler, melt the milk chocolate. Dip the balls and coat thoroughly. Then with a slotted spoon, lift the balls out of chocolate and let the excess chocolate drip off. Place each ball on a wax-paper-lined cookie sheet.

In separate double boiler, melt the white chocolate. Using a fork, drizzle white chocolate over balls.

Allow to cool and then store in airtight container, in refrigerator.
