My signature recipe I make is the Oreo truffles..
One of my girlfriends suggests puttng peanut butter cookies instead of Oreos,
so I decided to give it a whirl.
Ingredients
1 Package of peanut butter cookies
1 Package of reduced fat cream cheese
1 Package of dark chocolate chips
What You Will Need
Cookie Sheet
Parchment Paper
Mixing bowl
Large pan & sauce pan / Double Boiler
Fork
Take cream cheese out of fridge to be around room temperature.
Start with grinding up cookies in a food processor.
After it is fine, put cream cheese in bowl in small sections (it will become soft faster) and put in microwave for 35 seconds. Add cookie crumbs. Mix until combined.
Roll mixture into bite size balls and place on parchment paper on cookie sheet.
Let cool for 30 minutes in fridge. It allows them to harden, making it easier to coat in chocolate.
Now comes the part of coating the balls with the dark chocolate.
If you have a double boiler, you can use that.
However, I have yet to invest in one. I made my own.
You can too. Use a large pan, fill it with a little water, and place a sauce pan in the water so it is floating on it.
This "double boiler" allows you to melt the chocolate without getting it too hot.
Burnt chocolate is the worst. Do not microwave the chocolate chunks. Trust me.
Roll balls in chocolate with a fork. A fork works best because it lets you roll off the excess chocolate.
Place on parchment paper for easy clean up.
Let chocolate cool in fridge.
Add to a beautiful platter & share with your loved ones :)
