So good they will break up your marriage…

In honor of Katie Lee Joel cheating on Billy Joel with an Israeli hot man (Yigal Azrouel)…I post her recipe on cookies n cream truffles. You may dip them in hummus, like Yigal probably does [and Zohan]. Hey, to each their own right? Anyways, these treats are so good, they could break up a marriage. Enter at your own risk!

Place the cocoa powder in a fine-mesh sieve and dust the truffles lightly with cocoa.

Cast of Characters:
15 Oreo cookies
One 8-ounce package cream cheese
18 ounces white chocolate
cocoa powder, for coating

cream cheese and oreos

Place the oreos in a food processor

Pulse until the cookies become fine crumbs.

Mix in the cream cheese, wow

cookies and cream mixture

Using a melon baller or a teaspoon measure, scoop the cookie mixture into small balls. Place the cookie balls on the baking sheet. Cover the baking sheet with plastic and place in the freezer and freeze the cookies until firm, about 1 hour.

spoon truffles

Now its time to melt the white chocolate. You may use a double boiler. I don’t have one in my small apartment :( but I simulate double boiling by heating up water in a pot and stacking it with a larger pot above. Melt the chocolate into the upper pot, and spoon in some milk to smooth it out.
Buy me a double boiler, at Williams Sonoma, please.

melted white chocolate

Dip the cookie balls into the melted chocolate using a wooden skewer or fork and place back on the baking sheet. Cover the baking sheet with plastic and place back in the freezer and freeze the truffles until firm, about 1 hour. Serve cold and store in the freezer.
