Oreo Truffles are one of the best tasting mini Oreo sweet treats you have by far ever tasted. The cookie ball is real simple to make and is great for mini parties or family reunion. It’s so good; you can’t just have one of them. You have to just take another until you realize that you just ate them all. They are that good. When you bit into one you see that the inside is mostly Oreo with sometimes a hint of something smooth and chocolaty that just melts in your mouth. The Oreo Truffle is so easy to make even a little kid can make it; with parents supervision and help of course. The truffle it's self is easy to make but putting the "icing" on it is the hardest part of making this amazingly delectable sweet heavenly treat. 

INGREDIENTS 
1- 8oz package cream cheese
1- 15 ounce package Oreo cookies finely crushed (about 36 cookies) – divided 
1- package vanilla flavored almond bark or white chocolate chips (I used the vanilla almond bark with good results) 
DIRECTIONS 
Start by crushing one package of Oreo cookies (do not buy Double Stuff Oreos, just plain ole’ Oreos will do the trick) by using a rolling pin, or a food processor. Reserve a tablespoon or two of the crushed Oreos to be used as garnish. Mix one package of cream cheese in with the remaining crushed Oreos until blended well. Shape mixture into around 36-40 balls Refrigerate balls for around an hour to help firm them up. This will make them much easier to work with for the next step. Melt your almond bark or white chocolate chips and begin the process of dipping each Oreo ball into the chocolate. Using two forks during this step will help you get the balls coated evenly. After coating 1-2 balls in almond bark, sprinkle some of the crushed Oreos on top of each truffle (you reserved these during step 1). This is what makes them look all fancy!
