Oreo Truffle Supplies

Before you get started making your truffles from Oreos, you’re going to want to pick up these supplies so that you’re prepared.

• Food processor
• Wax paper
• Baking sheet

The food processor does most of the work, easy peasy right? Just add your ingredients and have them do the heavy lifting.

The great part about using a food processor is that it will handle those candy bits like a pro. It also contains them so that there is less of a mess as well.

And look at what you get when you’re done? So pretty and it’s the perfect holiday treat. They’re “almost” too pretty to eat…almost.

But be ready, they’ll be gone before you even know what happened. If you don’t sneak yourself a couple, they’ll be no proof at all that you even made them in the first place!

Who doesn’t love peppermint? It’s refreshing to have as a nice after-dinner treat but it’s also literally perfect for any time of day. You might have to try a few bites to see what time of day you prefer to eat them at – just to be certain that you’re doing what you need to do! (and if you want to save some for later, you can easily pop them in the fridge, too. Just use an airtight container and you’re good to go.)

You could even use your leftover candy canes, I’m all about not wasting food. There are always candy canes or peppermints that might be lying around the house so this recipe can help to use them up without wasting them.
