Makes 40 truffles
Ingredients:
1 lb Oreo cookies (3 sleeves)
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (using different extracts allows for subtle flavour changes...I've used mint extract, upped to 1 tsp) (optional)
1 lb milk chocolate
1/2 lb white chocolate
Directions:
1 Using a food processor, grind cookies to a fine powder. With a mixer, blend cookie powder, cream cheese and vanilla extract until thoroughly mixed (there should be no white traces of cream cheese).

Roll into small balls and place on wax-lined cookie sheet. Refrigerate for 45 minutes.
3
Line two cookie sheets with wax paper. In double-boiler, melt
milk chocolate. Dip balls and coat thoroughly. With slotted spoon, lift
balls out of chocolate and let excess chocolate drip off. Place on
wax-paper-lined cookie sheet.
4
In separate double boiler, melt white chocolate. Using a fork, drizzle white chocolate over balls. Let cool.
5
Store in airtight container, in refrigerator.

Note: When I am exceedingly lazy (most often the case these
days), I forego the chocolate 'dip' and merely roll my truffles into
various mixtures - chopped nuts, chocolate sprinkles, vari-coloured
candy sprinkles, cocoa powder, chocolate shavings, coloured sugars --
still pretty -- less work.
