Oreo Recipe-

1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened

1 pkg.  (16.6 oz.) OREO Cookies, finely crushed (about 4-1/4 cups), 1 pkg white chocolate for coating these just melt so many squares in the microwave and if you need more do moreDirections-

SHAPE into 48 (1-inch) balls. Dip in melted chocolate; place on waxed paper-covered baking sheet. Sprinkle with remaining cookie crumbs.

REFRIGERATE 1 hour or until firm. Store in tightly covered container in refrigerator.

To easily coat truffles with the melted chocolate, add truffles, in batches, to bowl of melted chocolate. Use 2 spoons to roll truffles in chocolate until evenly coated. Remove truffles with spoons, letting excess chocolate drip back into bowl. Place truffles on prepared baking sheet; let stand until firm

use wax paper on baking sheet .
