Snow and Truffles

I am posting from the middle of a winter wonderland except I am at work so not so much!  It has been DUMPING snow here for the last week or so!  Which on one hand is great for the moisture...it is sooooo dry here it almost hurts!  But on the other hand we are waiting for a new roof to be installed on our new house, and well they can't get that done when it looks like this outside...

Oh and the other nice thing about this weather is the Lexi thinks we are the best mom and dad ever because snow is like gold to this dog!!!  She.loves.it!!!  Straight up wild dog style (notice her ears flying in the air in this pic.  She looks like a batdog...love her :)

Mr. Mac and I had a dessert/game party to go to on Friday night.  I was not feeling so hot and didn't feel like baking up a storm so I made Oreo Truffles instead...much easier...kind of...

I made a double batch...obviously you could only use one of each

In my awesome blondness I decided to put the cookies in a zip-loc and bang the crap out of them...that worked for like 2 seconds.  Then I remembered the power of the food processor.  That works muuuch better.  After the cookies are a fine crumby texture mix in room temp cream cheese and it will look like this...

So gross looking but so tasty when it touches the lips :)

Melt the chocolate...



Roll the truffle mix into tablespoon size balls and coat in the chocolate, put in fridge to cool and enjoy!!

There ya have it snow and truffles...the truffles make the snow that much better :)  If you don't have snow then just enjoy the truffles!
