Mint Truffles

This is the easiest holiday treat you will ever make and everyone will wonder how you did it.  I made these for a baby shower and they were a hit.  So easy to make and fun to take a few to all your neighbors to say Merry Christmas.

Mint Truffles

1 pkg fudge covered mint cookies

1/2 block 8 oz cream cheese

1 pkg mint chocolate chips

1/2 Cup white chocolate chips for decoration (optional)

1. Blend cookies in food processor until it looks like dust.  Place in mixing bowl.

2. Fold in softened cream cheese with cookie dust.  Easiest if mixed with hands until it looks like wet dirt.

3. Roll teaspoon sized balls and place on parchment paper.

4. Place in fridge for 1 hour.

5. Place in melted mint chips to coat entire cookie balls.  Place back on parchment paper and place in fridge for 1 hour.  You can be finished at this point or you can melt white chips and drizzle over top.  You could also place sprinkles on top before chocolate layer has hardened.
