Oreo Truffles

Ingredients

1 Package Oreos
8 oz. Cream Cheese
10-12 oz. Bag White Chocolate Chips (you can use milk chocolate or whatever floats your boat)
1-2 Tsp Shortening

Instructions

Prepare a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and set aside. If you have a food processor, throw the Oreos in and get them ground up to crumbs. If you are using a blender, start by removing the frosting from the Oreos and putting that to the side. Then crush the cookies in the blender to crumbs. Mix the crumbs from the food processor, or the crumbs and frosting from the blender with the cream cheese until smooth. Refrigerate for 15-30 minutes (can be skipped), then mold balls out of mixture and set on prepared pan. Refrigerate or freeze for at least 10 minutes. While those are chilling, put half of the white chocolate in a glass bowl with a teaspoon of shortening, and melt in the microwave, pulling out every 30 seconds and stirring until completely melted. Take Oreo balls out of fridge/freezer and one by one roll them in the melted chocolate. Set them back on the pan once covered in chocolate. Dipping can be done by hand, or with two forks. If you need more melted chocolate, melt the rest of the chocolate with another teaspoon of shortening. If the chocolate doesn’t set once on the Oreo balls, put back in the fridge or freezer until it does. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
