A Southern Grace: Hazelnut Oreo Truffles

Hazelnut Oreo Truffles

Yum

Makes about 4 dozen
Ingredients:

  • 1 (14.3 ounce) package Oreo cookies
  • 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup hazelnut chocolate spread
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted
Directions: Crush cookies to fine crumbs; place in medium bowl. Add cream cheese and chocolate spread; mix until well blended. Roll cookie mixture into 42-48 balls, each about 1 inch in diameter. Freeze these balls for an hour or so, until they're frozen through. Dip the frozen balls into the melted chocolate. Lift truffle from chocolate using 2 forks (this will allow excess chocolate to run off) before placing on wax paper. Sprinkle colored sanding sugar and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
