Gingerbread Oreo® Truffles image

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.

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (14 ounce) box gingersnap cookies
½ cup golden sandwich cookies (such as Golden OREO)

Steps:

  • Crush gingersnap cookies and sandwich cookies in a food processor. Pour into a medium bowl and mix with cream cheese.

  • Melt cinnamon chips in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, about 1 minute.
