GINGERBREAD OREO® TRUFFLES
In looking for some good fall/winter truffle recipes, I decided a gingerbread truffle recipe would be wonderful, so I took my knowledge of truffle recipes and put it to use. The following is my own simple recipe for a nice fall/winter treat--not too sweet, and not loaded with chocolate like many other truffle recipes.

Steps:
- Crush the Oreos into fine crumbs with a food processor or use a Ziploc bag with a rolling pin. Add the crumbs to a stand mixer with a large bowl with the softened cream cheese. Mix until incorporated. Roll the mixture into 1" balls. Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate for about 1 hour, until firm.
- To Coat: Melt the vanilla candy melts slowly, either in the microwave or on the stovetop according to directions on package.
- Drop one or two truffles into the melted chocolate and use a fork to remove balls, letting the excess chocolate drip. Place the balls back on the waxed paper.
- Add the toppings, before the chocolate hardens.
- Store in the refrigerator.
