OREO TRUFFLES

Ingredients:

1 16-ounce pkg Oreo cookies

1 8-ounce pkg cream cheese, softened

2 8-ounce pkg Baker's semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted

Directions:

Place chocolate in small saucepan over low heat; stirring frequently. Don't put all the chocolate in at once. Let a few melt, then add more until they're all melted. Set aside.

Crush 9 cookies to fine crumbs in food processor; reserve for later use. Crush remaining 36 cookies to fine crumbs; place in medium bowl. Add cream cheese; mix until well blended. Roll cookie mixture into balls, about 1-inch in diameter.

Dip balls in chocolate; place on wax paper-covered baking sheet. Sprinkle with reserved cookie crumbs.

Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. Store leftover truffles, covered, in refrigerator.
