Chocolate truffles always sound super fancy and even more difficult to make. A gourmet chocolatier or baker might prepare a luxurious ganache, add heavy cream, brandy, and other super elegant ingredients. And while we know a truffle like this is sure to melt the heart of any chocolate lover, we love this more simplified version and the satisfaction that comes with creating something really elegant looking without all of the extra effort. So, if you want to look like a gourmet baker (without all of the gourmet training), look no further than these delightfully delicious chocolate truffles.
Our chocolate truffles taste just as good as they look, and you only need a few simple ingredients: chocolate, oreos, and cream cheese! Truffles are great served up at a party or wrapped in cellophane and sent off as party favors. It’s pretty much impossible to go wrong with this one…and pretty much impossible to eat just one!

- 1 package semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ package of white chocolate chips

Preparation
- In a food processor, pulse cookies until sand-like in consistency.
