I love food. I love to research it. I love to shop for it. I love to prepare it. I love smelling it.I love sharing it with others. BUT I ALSO LOVE..the happy memories it creates.
That being said....
Allow me to be blunt. This. Summer. Sucked. Soaking wet spring to sudden triple digit weather and now a dreary fall. I have happily gardened,hiked,photographed and more in an attempt to make the best of it. Now we have been told to prepare for a long,cold winter. Check please!!In an attempt to maintain my sanity, I have turned my energy into starting a few projects around the house and...cooking. The thought of cooking through the holidays excites me! Ohhhh there is hope! Quickly I remember a recipe I found last year. Easy Oreo Truffles.MMMmmm I shared this recipe until my printer ran out of ink. Happy memories! Did I mention..I love food!? Wait..what..was I just complaining about something? I forget..so let's get back to truffles :)
Easy Oreo Truffles
Grind up one whole package of Oreos in your blender/food procesor. Save out about 1 cup of ground up Oreos and put it to the side.
Add one 8 oz package of room temp. cream cheese to the remaining Oreos and combine well.
Then form them into one inch balls and refrigerate.
Melt one package of chocolate chips on a double broiler or very carefully in a microwave.
Dip the Oreo balls into the melted chocolate and coat well.
Place on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper.
Take the cup of ground up Oreos and sprinkle the extra crumbs all over the truffles.
Refrigerate until chocolate sets,about 20 minutes.
Enjoy!
