If you haven't tried these, you haven't lived!
Okay, that's a little melodramatic, but seriously... these things are spectacular!!
I tried posting pics on my page but they just won't go through, so if you want to see my finished product, hit my profile up and click on the link to my blog.
The super-simple recipe is as follows:
FOR FILLING
1 Box of Original Oreos
1/2 tub of Tofutti 'Better Than Cream Cheese'
FOR COATING/ROLLING
(Of course, you don't have to do all three, but I'm all about variety)
200g Dark Chocolate - melted (I used Lindt Dark Cooking Chocolate)
Crushed nuts (I used walnuts because that's all I had in the pantry, and they worked well)
Dessicated coconut
METHOD
If you have a food processor, toss the Oreos in and pulse the crap out of them, then added the cream cheese and blend until you have a relatively smooth paste.
If you don't have a food processor, toss the Oreos into a high-sided bowl and CRUSH the crap out of them with whatever you have handy, then add the cream cheese and mix with a spoon to form a smooth paste.
In either case, don't stress too much about lumps, because the Oreos will soften as the truffles set anyway.
Once that's done, simply roll teaspoon-ish globs of mixture into balls and either coat in melted chocolate and leave them as is, or coat in chocolate THEN roll in nuts, or... simply roll in dessicated coconut WITHOUT coating them in chocolate. Whichever way you do it, they'll taste superb.
Place the truffles on a non-stick surface after rolling/coating.
Following that, pop them into the freezer for an hour if you want a quick choc fix (then put them in the fridge), or pop them straight in the fridge for a few hours before indulging.
