Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 stick softened margarine or butter
3/4 c granulated sugar
3/4 c brown sugar, firmly packed
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
3, 1/2 c flour, all purpose
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp soda
2 c chocolate chips
21 oreo cookies, crushed in food processor
3 oz cream cheese

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In an electric mixer beat butter and sugars until well combined. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well. In a large bowl place flour, salt and baking soda and mix. Add to your wet ingredients in mixer. Then add your chocolate chips. After adding your chocolate chips just mix a short time to blend together.
2. Oreo Balls: Place oreo cookies in a food processor, mix until finely ground. Place into a bowl and mix with cream cheese until dough is firm. Take 1 tablespoon of dough and roll into a ball. Continue making dough balls of which you should end up with 36.
3. Cookies: With a large cookie scoop, scoop dough onto parchment lined baking sheet. Press a little hole in the center of dough and put your oreo truffle inside of cookie. Cover cookie around the oreo truffle so it is hidden in the middle.
4. Bake for 13-15 minutes or until edges of cookies just begin to turn golden brown. Remove and let cool on a baking sheet before transferring to cooling rack. This should make 36 cookies.
