Valentines Day is a week from today! Why dont you celebrate by making these incredibly easy and delicious cookies n cream truffles?
I first tried these truffles at a New Year's Eve party this past year. I completely smitten and naturally, asked the host of the party for the exact recipe. When she told me it was nothing but chocolate sandwich cookies and cream cheese dipped in chocolate, I couldnt believe it! There had to be more to it than that! But no, she assured me there were only three ingredients involved and everyone always raved about them. I couldnt wait to remake them at home and figured Valentines Day was the perfect occasion!
For this recipe, youll need an entire package of chocolate sandwich cookies and six ounces of cream cheese. Youll also need a food processor so you can mix the two thoroughly into truffle consistency.
