Oreo Truffles!

 EASY. SO EASY! I will definitely be making these again! They took basically no effort at all and were so so yummy.


You could even make these into Easter truffles, by using white bark and coloring pastel colors ;)

Ingredients:
1 (1 lb.) pkg. Oreo cookies (don't use double-stuffed)
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, at room temperature
1 tsp. vanilla extract
16 oz. chocolate bark

Instructions:
1. Break Oreos slightly and add them, cream and all, to a food processor or blender.
2. Grind until Oreo crumbs resemble something like coarse coffee grinds.
3. Dump Oreo crumbs into a bowl and add cream cheese and vanilla.
4. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat Oreo mixture until well mixed. You can also do this by hand.
5. Cover and refrigerate about 45 minutes to an hour.
6. With your hands, shape into small eggs (about 1 1/2" long). Place eggs on waxed paper and refrigerate another hour.
7. When ready to dip, melt chocolate bark. 
8. Spear each Oreo egg with a toothpick and dip in white chocolate. Allow the excess to drip away. Place gently on waxed paper.
9. Let sit 15-20 minutes to set. Decorate with drizzled chocolate as desired. Cover and store in the refrigerator until ready to eat. They taste even better the next day!
