Oreo Truffles

Karen made these and brought them to brunch.  My friend Farah makes very similar ones but dips the oreo truffles in white chocolate and drizzles the top with dark chocolate.  Either way they are sinfully delicious.

Ingredients:

1 16oz package of Oreos

1 8oz package of cream cheese
2 8oz packages semi-sweet chocolate, melted

Preparation:

Crush 9 of the cookies to fine crumbs in a food processor(or ziploc bag); reserve for later.  Crush remaining 36 cookies to fine crumbs; place in a medium bowl.  Add cream cheese and mix until well blended.  Roll cookie mixture into 42 balls about 1 inch in diameter.  Dip balls in chocolate and place on a wax paper covered baking sheet.  Sprinkle with reserved crumbs.  Refrigerate until firm about 1 hour. 

Store covered in refrigerator.
