I was just looking through kraftfoods.com and I found 2 truffle recipes. Then I remembered that I've seen truffles used as favors. Here are the recipes:
Easy OREO Truffles
1 pkg. (1 lb., 2 oz.) OREO Chocolate Sandwich Cookies, divided 1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened 2 pkg. (8 oz. each) BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate, melted
CRUSH 9 of the cookies to fine crumbs in food processor; reserve for later use. (Cookies can also be finely crushed in a resealable plastic bag using a rolling pin.) Crush remaining 36 cookies to fine crumbs; place in medium bowl. Add cream cheese; mix until well blended. Roll cookie mixture into 42 balls, about 1-inch in diameter. DIP balls in chocolate; place on wax paper-covered baking sheet. (Any leftover chocolate can be stored at room temperature for another use.) Sprinkle with reserved cookie crumbs. REFRIGERATE until firm, about 1 hour. Store leftover truffles, covered, in refrigerator.
