EASY OREO TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate chips and stir until smooth (I use the microwave and it takes around 1 minute on high, warning microwaves differ so check it part way through so you don't burn your chocolate).
• Mix the melted chocolate and cream cheese until smooth and evenly chocolate.
• Add the 2 cups of Oreo crumbs and mix until well blended (note: this is quite thick and a little hard to stir, but do it anyway).
• Form into small balls (1" or less) then roll in Oreo crumbs to lightly coat.
