Equipment

  • Food Processor

Ingredients
  

  • 15 oz. package of strawberry creme sandwich cookies
  • 8 oz. cream cheese room temperature
  • 3 oz. package strawberry jello
  • 24 oz. vanilla almond bark melted
  • 1 c. pink candy melts melted

Instructions
 

  • Crush the cookies in a food processor and transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Add the cream cheese and strawberry jello powder. Mix with a hand mixer until the mixture becomes thick and formable.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out about 1 ½ tablespoons of the mixture, roll into balls, and place on the parchment paper. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
  • Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 1 hour or overnight.
  • In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the almond bark by microwaving and stirring every 30 seconds until completely melted. Using two forks, dip the truffle balls into the melted bark, scraping off the excess on the side of the bowl. Place the coated truffles back on the parchment paper.
  • In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the pink candy melts by microwaving and stirring until smooth. If too thick, add a little vegetable oil. Pour the melted candy into a small zip-lock bag, snip off a tiny corner, and drizzle over the truffles.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use a food processor to crush the cookies finely. This will help the mixture bind better and give the truffles a smoother consistency.
  • Freezing the truffle mixture for at least an hour (or overnight) ensures the truffles are firm enough to dip in the almond bark without falling apart.
  • When melting almond bark and candy melts, microwave in 30-second intervals and stir each time to prevent burning.
  • These truffles are best served chilled, so keep them refrigerated until ready to enjoy.
