Signing UpStep 1: Make the Oreo Truffles
In a food processor or blender mix together the Oreo Cookies and the cream cheese until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Take 2 teaspoons of the Oreo Truffle mixture and shape into rounds between the palms of your hands by rolling the mixture back and forth and around.
Pop the truffles onto a parchment lined tray. Using one of the lollipop sticks make a hole in the top of the truffle where the lollipop stick will sit. This is in case the mixture chills too hard during the chilling process. See the picture for example of hole placement.
Melt the Chocolate candy melts in a microwave safe bowl at medicum/low setting at bursts of 90 seconds. Add some copha or paramount crystals during the melting process so the mixture is fluid but not too thin, the chocolate/candy melt mixture should look like cream .
Dip the ends of each lollipop stick into the melted chocolate candy melt and then insert the stick into the premade hole of each Oreo truffle, so that the stick is pointing up in the air. Repeat for each truffle and return to fridge to chill until set.

Thanks! These sound delicious and I love that they are on a stick. Makes them an easy "take along" dessert for potlucks - no worries about needing an eating utensil. In fact, I plan to try them out for a party next weekend.
