Cookie Swap

Over the holiday break, a good family friend invited us to a cookie swap. My sister and I joked that we should bring no-bake cookies and my poor mom thought we were serious. Mortified, because this was supposed to be a more "gourmet" event, she suggested that I make my killer oreo truffles. Oreo truffles are basically pieces of chocolate heaven. They will instantly give you the reputation of a professional and successful baker. The best part? You don't actually have to bake anything. 

Here's the recipe:
1 bag of Oreo cookies (normal, no double stuff or any other variation)
8 oz cream cheese (you can do low-fat if it makes you feel better--no one will notice the difference)
1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
whatever other toppings you would like (almond bits, coconut, white chocolate, etc)

Crush the entire bag of oreos to smithereens. fold in cream cheese until the entire mixture is brown again. roll into balls and dip into melted chocolate chips. Top with whatever else you'd like. 

It's that simple.

Rhetorically,
