Back when my husband and I were just dating, I made Oreo truffles for him. They were among the first things I made for him and he fell in love -- first with them, then with me. (Thank goodness!) Anyhow, those truffles have become a staple in our house.
THESE ones are a bit different, though. They're lemony, sweet, and just about bite-sized.
Here's what you need:
- One package of cheap lemon sandwich cookies
- One 8 oz. package of cream cheese
- White chocolate chips for melting
If you want to go all Betty Crocker on this, you can make the cookies yourself. I find the store-bought cookies to be easier and more convenient. You can also customize it however you'd like -- fat free cream cheese, gluten-free cookies, or yogurt chips instead of white chocolate. Totally your call. Anyway, all you need to do is blend the cookies in a food processor until they're very finely chopped, mix them in with the room-temperature cream cheese, and roll them into bite-sized bits of heaven. Then, after you've melted the white chocolate chips, roll the cookie mix in the white chocolate, set each one on a parchment-covered baking sheet, and pop them in the fridge for a few minutes. Less than thirty minutes later, they're ready to eat! It really couldn't be any easier. |
