Wow, what a great recipe! I really liked these truffles. They are intensely chocolatey on the outside and so creamy on the inside. I made 1/4 the recipe and ended up with 10 big truffles. Next time Im making these (and there will definitely be a next time) I will use a bit less cream cheese in order to bring out the oreo flavour even more and achieve a slightly firmer truffle. But thats just personal preference.<br/>I used part golden oreos so that my truffle centres came out a bit lighter in colour.<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this delicious recipe here with us, midnight blue!<br/>Made and reviewed for one of my babies during PAC Spring 2012.

I thought about cutting this recipe down for just the 2 of us, then decided I'd take some of them to share at a park-wide potluck so made the whole thing! In a word or two ~ Absolutely D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S! Thoroughly enjoyed making 'em & my chocoholic sweet-tooth was wonderfully satiated! Definitely a recipe worth keeping around! Many thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this Spring's round of Pick A Chef]
