Oreo Truffles

Every year for the past three years I've been making these Oreo Truffles
The original recipe is from
http://www.kraftfoods.com/kf/recipes/easy-oreo-truffles-95085.aspx

There seem to be a few variations so here is the recipe I use

1 package Oreos
1 8 ounce package light cream cheese
about 6 pieces of chocolate bark
Fun sprinkles

In a food processor I grind the Oreos into a fine dust
Then I add the cream cheese, its best if it has softened
I process again. The mixture looks like mud when its combined

Put wax paper on a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan
Put spoonfuls of the Oreo mixture on the wax paper
Place the pans in the freezer
Once the mixture is frozen, roll the spoonfuls into nice round balls

With a double boiler, melt the chocolate bark
Stick a toothpick in the ball and dip into the chocolate bark
Place the dipped ball back on the wax paper
Sprinkle immediately with sprinkles
Stick the truffles into the freezer

I store the finished truffles in a tupperware container with wax papers between the layers. I also keep the truffles in the freezer unless I'm serving them

Low Iodine Diet

I have to be on this low iodine diet for a while. At least until the end of February. You will be seeing some new recipes coming as my husband and I try to cook things to fit this diet. More info can be found here Thyroid Cancer Survivor Association I don't have thyroid cancer. I do have to have the same treatment as a thyroid cancer patient would have. Don't worry! I'll be fine in a few months. Some of the guidelines include -No seafood. no problem since I don't eat any -No soy products. no soy sauce, no tofu, no soy beans. sadness :( -No processed foods. The frozen meals I like to eat at lunch at work are now OUT. AHHHHHHHHHH and so are things like canned soup. Good bye tomato soup in a can -No dairy. Whatever is used to clean the cow milking equipment has iodine. how will I like without milk, cheese, and yogurt. it really puts a damper on my breakfast options. -Only fresh bread. I just threw a loaf of sliced wheat bread in the freezer for when the diet...
