One of my best friends is getting married in a couple weeks and I’m her Matron of Honor. My fellow bridesmaids and I threw her bachelorette party last weekend and had a little pre-party shower for her. I made oreo truffles and chocolate covered strawberries. Everyone went NUTS over the truffles. I didn't let on how easy they are to make. Below is a picture of our food table.
Oreo Truffles
Recipe from http://www.kraftfoods.com/
1 package Oreo cookies (regular, mint, or peanut butter)
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
2 pkg (8 oz each) semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted
Crush 9 cookies (you only need about 3 cookies, so do 3 and save remaining 6 for eating) in food processor or in a big bag with a rolling pin. Set aside.
Crush remaining 36 cookies in similar fashion. Place in medium bowl. Add cream cheese and mix until well-blended. (this is best done with your hands).
Roll cookies into small balls, about 1-inch in diameter.
Dip balls into chocolate; Place on wax paper-covered baking sheet. Sprinkle with reserved cookie crumbs.
Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.

I just made some truffles the other day! I was trying to recreate Vosges' Naga truffle (sweet curry, coconut, milk chocolate). Sadly, mine weren't as successful as I'd like (tasted good, but not enough coconut coming through). I'll have to try your Oreo ones next time - they sound yummy!
