I love this recipe because it calls for Oreo cookies, cream cheese and chocolate! They are super tasty and look how awesome they look when they're done. This is a budget friendly recipe for sure and since standard truffles could cost as much as $5.00 each, this is a smart option for any budget bride because 100 of these truffles will cost you around $20 bucks to make.
Ingrediants
1 pkg. (1 lb. 2 oz.) OREO Cookies, finely crushed,
divided
1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese,
softened
2 pkg. (8 squares each) BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate,
melted
Directions
1) Mix 3 cups of the cookie crumbs and the cream cheese until well blended. Shape into 42 (1-inch) balls.
2) Dip balls in melted chocolate; place on waxed paper-covered baking sheet. (Any leftover melted chocolate can be stored in tightly covered container at room temperature and saved for another use.) Sprinkle with remaining cookie crumbs.
3) Refridgerate for 1 hour or until firm. Store any leftover truffles in tightly covered container in refrigerator.
Prep Time:30 min Total Time:1 hr 30 min
Makes: 3-1/2 doz. or 42 servings, one truffle each
How to Easily Dip Truffles
To easily coat truffles with the melted chocolate, add
truffles, in batches, to bowl of melted chocolate. Then
use two forks to roll truffles in chocolate until evenly
coated. Remove the truffles with forks and allow excess
chocolate to drip back into bowl before placing truffles
on prepared baking sheet.
Special Extra
Sprinkle truffles with colored sugar or sprinkles in
addition to or in place of the cookie crumbs.
How to Soften Cream Cheese
Place completely unwrapped package of cream cheese in
microwaveable bowl. Microwave on HIGH 10 sec. or just
until softened. Add 15 sec. for each additional package
of cream cheese.
