Oreo Truffles

In lieu of buying boxed chocolates this Valentine's, we opted to make Oreo Truffles, affectionately Oreo Balls. I had dinner at the Veldkamps' this weekend, and Mrs. Veldkamp made a delicious, simple dessert that I knew I had to make this weekend. This dessert is very rich and smooth. Store in refrigerator (as they have cream cheese in them).


Ingredients:

  • 1 pkg. Oreos (or 3 sleeves), crushed
  • 8 oz. brick cream cheese
  • 12 oz. chocolate chips
  • 2 T. shortening
  • sprinkles, if desired



Directions:

  1. Crush Oreos, add cream cheese and smush together. ( I used a rolling pin to crush the Oreos, a food processor works too)
  2. Roll into small balls and let set in refrigerator until hard.
  3. Melt chocolate and shortening.
  4. Dip Oreo balls in chocolate, add sprinkles, and let set.
