This recipe is so easy in
fact, that you could even make it in the kitchen of your
White Chocolate Oreo
Truffles
1 package of regular or mint Oreos
8 oz. package of cream cheese
1 package of white almond bark candy coating
1 package of chocolate chips (optional)
Directions:
In a blender or food processor, grind all of the Oreos until
they look like coffee grounds. Add the
package of cream cheese to the Oreos and blend until smooth. If you don't have a blender or food
processor, you can crush the Oreos in a plastic zip-lock bag and then kneed in
the cream cheese. Line a baking sheet
with waxed paper. Roll the Oreo/cream
cheese dough into small balls and place them on the waxed paper-lined baking
sheet. Put the Oreo balls in the freezer
for approximately 1 hour. Melt ½ to ¾ of
the package of almond bark in the microwave in a microwave safe bowl or over
low heat on the stove in a saucepan. Dip
all of the frozen Oreo balls in the melted candy coating and place them back on
the waxed paper-lined baking sheet.
Return the coated Oreo balls to the freezer or refrigerator until the candy
coating hardens.
Optional Step: You
may wish to finish off the Oreo balls with some chocolate swirls. This step will make your treats look ultra-fancy,
but it somewhat goes against my "keep it simple" motto. Use your discretion. If you have a little extra time, go for
it. Here's what you do: melt ½ cup of the chocolate chips and a
teaspoon of vegetable oil in a zip-lock bag in the microwave. Snip the corner of the bag, and pipe
chocolate swirls over the white chocolate Oreo balls. When finished, return the treats to the
freezer until the chocolate is set.
Store in an airtight container in the freezer until you are ready to
serve.
