MARSHMALLOW SWIRL OREO COOKIE TRUFFLES RECIPE

Everyone likes Oreo cookies. Well... For me they take me to a simpler time when I had no worries... (childhood). Growing up up I always loved truffles.  I guess that's why I think these Marshmallow swirl Oreo Cookie truffles really caught my eye.  The ease of making these truffles didn't exactly deter me either.



Ingredients:

    1 pkg (8 oz.) brick cream cheese, softened
    36 OREO Cookies, finely crushed (1 whole package- about 3 cups crushed)
    1 package semi-sweet baking chocolate chips, melted
    1/3 cup marshmallow creme (optional)
    White chocolate Drizzle
    Colorful sprinkles (flat kind)



Directions:

1.BLEND the oreo cookies until they resemble fine crumbs. I just pulsed half the cookies a few times in my blender, using a fork to give it a quick stir between pulses. Repeat with the other half of the cookies. 

2.MIX cream cheese and cookie crumbs until combined. Pipe marshmallow cream onto the "dough" using a small snack bag. Mix gently in between marshmallow cream additions. I piped in a line, then mixed it once or twice with a rubber scraper, then repeated the process 2-3 times. You don't want the marshmallow cream to be completely mixed in, rather you want to see swirls of it throughout. 

3.SHAPE into 48 (1-inch) balls. Freeze 10 min. Dip cookie balls in melted chocolate; place in single layer in shallow waxed paper-lined pan. {I added about 1 TBSP of coconut oil to my chocolate to thin it out a bit. It makes dipping easier. Just add it to the bowl of chocolate chips, then microwave about 1 minute, until melted. Stir gently to bend.}

4.CUSTOMIZE it with your own ingredient additions or decorative skills. I added white chocolate drizzle and game day sprinkles! Have fun with it! 

5.REFRIGERATE 1 hour or until firm.
